Whether they're working together to help sea animals in danger or solving a mystery of the deep, there's always an adventure to be had with the best friends of Mermaids Rock.

Linda Chapman is the best-selling author of over 200 books. The biggest compliment Linda can have is for a child to tell her they became a reader after reading one of her books. Linda lives in a cottage with a tower in Leicestershire with her husband, three children, two dogs, and one pony. When she's not writing, Linda likes to ride, read, and visit schools and libraries to talk to people about writing.

Mirelle loves magic, vibrant colors, and ghost stories. But more than anything, she loves telling unique stories with funny characters and a touch of magical realism.
