Bookroo's summary

Jesse and Daisy, young Dragon Keepers, embark on a perilous journey with their dragon, Emmy, to safeguard an egg containing her baby brother. Venturing into the Watery Realms, they encounter mer-people, selkies, and water zombies. As magic and mayhem unfold, the trio must navigate this treacherous world, testing their courage and the strength of their bond. Will they succeed in their quest, or will the sea's mysteries prove too great a challenge?

From the publisher

This excellent series is solidly middle grade, accessible, and adventure-filled. In The Dragon in the Sea, Dragon Keepers Jesse and Daisy, help their dragon, Emmy, as she tries to protect an egg which holds her baby brother. Their adventures take them into the Watery Realms, a world filled with mer-people, selkies, and water zombies. Magic, mayhem, and an unusual cast of charaters make the reading fun, and the wonderful relationship between the dragon keeper cousins and their dragon add both depth and dimension.
