Synopsis

"At the bottom of the sea, in the deepest of deep,

Was where many a magical creature did sleep.

Among all the creatures that called ocean 'home',

Lay a cracked coconut, rolling round on its own...

A tiny coconut octopus she turned out to be,

Colourful, spotted, but too shy to be free!

If only she could brave life outside the shell,

She would soon learn the ocean had secrets to tell..."

Join this enchanting story of how a lonely coconut octopus is befriended by a beautiful mermaid, and whether the octopus can overcome her shyness when her friend falls in trouble.
