Hennelyn is only fourteen, the daughter of a soldier, born into a fierce, warlike race – the Starkhons. Her father, General Tai Kanow, has orders to conquer and enslave the remaining indigenous people who are still living free on the prairie toes of a beautiful mountain range west of the established Starkhon territories. These small people who were first in this land call themselves Bunjis.

But Hennelyn is also the daughter of a woman from Luina, whose people are peaceful and kind.

After being put in charge of her father’s first captured Bunji in their prairie outpost, Hennelyn finds herself drawn to the young prisoner. She feels a need to act – but which legacy should she choose, her father’s or her mother’s?

The bunji’s life is in her hands. She must decide what to do… even if her chosen path costs her everything.

Teaching children about feelings is vital to healthy social and emotional development, however, it can be a challenging task to take on.

Using this book can be a helpful tool for exposing young children to EIGHT types of feelings. Being able to identify emotions is the first step to emotional wellness. Once the child is familiar with feeling identification they can begin acknowledging their own feelings. From there they can start to develop calming or alerting tools that help them work through their emotions.

Follow along with the character Scuba Farrah as she takes your child on an underwater adventure meeting different SEA CREATURES. Each sea creature will describe how they are feeling, and how each emotion impacts their mind and body.

Give your child the gift of being able to safely swim in a sea of feelings with all the tools needed for their emotional health and wellbeing.
