Ariel and the Sea Wolf
by Liz Marsham

Supposedly, the occupant of the cave is a dangerous creature willing to eat anyone who dares enter. Despite her sister's warnings about the cave, Ariel's sense of responsibility implores her to enter the cave and attempt to retrieve her sister's bracelet. What she finds within is not what she expected, and her quest for a bracelet turns into a quest to demonstrate the importance of truth and trust--because sometimes what you hear isn't what you should believe . . . and sometimes, it is.
