The Story
Sabrina McKay is a spontaneous, absentminded, and adventurous 11 year old girl living in a village on the northeastern coast of Scotland in the 1950s. She lives there with her parents, Robby and Amelia, and her best friend in the whole world, her dog, Tomino.
She loves her life, but many things are changing…which she is not very happy about.
Most changes she sees as bad, but some are good- magical perhaps?
Within the pages of Sabrina McKay and the Cerulean World, is a story of change and growth.
It is a story of the nature of life with all the new, the old, the future and the past.
Join Sabrina as she navigates her everyday life as well as an epic quest in a fantastical world in her dreams.
In these pages, readers will be sure to find plenty of the ordinary and lots of action, adventure and romance!
