The enchanted Pearl-Away Kris and Kate's next adventures, and where they sail to in their magical ship the Pearl-Away with their accident-prone but delightful dog Holly.

Whatever the process, young readers will be drawn into this imaginative enchanted world and both love and learn from the experience, An illustrated chapter book in the Kate~Pearl by the prize-winning author Ruth Finnegan
