What is The Mirror, the Candle and the Flute about?
Benjamin is caught in a fierce storm while sailing away from the island of the mer-people. In the confusion, he loses his precious bag containing a mirror, a candle and a flute. Without the candle he cannot see in the darkness, without the mirror he cannot find his way, and without the flute he cannot call the Griffin. Benjamin must face the dangers of the night and recover the missing objects before he is lost forever.
