  Siblings Alexander and Lily did not have great expectations. Most of their friends were jetting off abroad for much-needed and much-missed holidays after the strain of the first Covid-19 lockdown. They had wanted to fly abroad too, perhaps to somewhere with a welcoming, warm climate, somewhere exciting and exotic. But the money set aside for this vacation had been swallowed up when their mum's old car had broken down.
  
  So, they were setting off instead for a 'staycation' in Brampton Sands, a location so remote that there weren't even any motorways leading to it! Of course, they were looking forward to a holiday with their mother, but could a 'staycation' in their own country really match up to a wonderful trip abroad?
  
  Ocean Times is an inspiring and heart-warming tale of friendship, fun and resilience, with a delightful measure of magic. Readers new to the main characters will be captivated by them, while old friends from Dragon Times will be enchanted once more.
