Bloomsbury presents Sandy Fin: Operation Splash Landing by Martin Stewart, read by Hamish Lloyd Barnes.

'[A] thrilling story... a must-read for 8+ year olds' School Reading List

Meet ocean explorer Sandy Fin, silver-scaled diver of the deep, puzzler of puzzles and hero of a new madcap middle grade series from Martin Stewart.

Sandy Fin lives in the Museum of Seaside Stories with the famous explorer Emile du Pont and their collection of treasures. Sandy and his best friend Lily are being taught the art of ocean exploration by Emile, aided by his ingenious inventions.

When the museum's future is in peril, it is up to Sandy and Lily to save it. But then Albo Start arrives! Start plans to turn Portwhistle Bay into a Seaworld-style theme park named Splash Landing, locking up Portwhistle’s cherished marine life in tiny tanks.

Sensing skulduggery, Sandy and Lily set out to stop Start, armed with banana sandwiches, moonlit sneezes and noses for danger. C 2025 Martin Stewart|P 2025 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC
