Aqua Marina Series
Is there a hidden city deep in the ocean called Mermaidland? Are mermaids and mermen actually real? For thousands of years, this has been the ocean’s best kept secret. But something really serious is going on underwater, and perhaps it is time for some young boys and girls to learn the truth. You have been chosen for a very important mission! Now more than ever, we need… Ocean Guards!
Aqua Marina 1. The Secret of the Ocean
My name’s Aqua, I was born with sea blue hair and I’m a MERMAID! Yes, you read that right — mermaids are real and we live in MERMAIDLAND, a mysterious city hidden beneath the ocean. But something huge is going on, and my friends and I want to find out what it is. To do so, we must go through the Giant Algae Forest, which is inhabited by spine-chilling beings… and a witch! And this is just the beginning of our journey!
Aqua Marina 2. The Mystery of the Eclipse
Can you imagine suddenly discovering that you have a sister? A sister who lives far away and seems to be from a different world, but who has more in common with you than you thought? Well, that’s what happened to me. And you have no idea how great it was to have her around when that horrible thing happened and the secret about mermaids was nearly spread around the seven seas. But I’m already talking too much…
Aqua Marina 3. The Mystery of the Eclipse
After meeting Aqua and her friends and living their first adventures underwater, as well as some dangerous situations, the third book takes us along to a lake that hides an important secret. There’s a treasure that is in great danger, and Aqua and her friends are the only ones who could find it and keep it save… Will they manage to get there before it’s too late?
