What is Acrooacree about?
After sailing away from the island of the Mer-people, Benjamin is caught in a fierce night-time storm. In the chaos, his precious bag is swept overboard, taking with it a candle, a mirror 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 sea and find a way to recover the magical objects before he is lost forever.
