Publisher's Synopsis
It was winter break in South Florida. Little girl Trudy Tuckell had a secret. A magical entrance in the water let her become a manatee for five days before Christmas. She met her two friends, a manatee and a shark, and off they went on their daily swim. Oh no, the squids warned of a hurricane. A late hurricane arrived! Santa Claus was checking flight paths in the area. The deer were injured, and the sled fell in the ocean. Can Trudy, aquatic friends, and the portal help Saint Nick in time for the Christmas holiday?
