A charming Australian story of two little rock sprites who fall into the hands of Octo the Octopus and escape, only to be captured by Pegler the Pirate, a seagull with a lame leg, who sails a ship with the black sails, with a ban of queer little animals of the bush with gipsy blood in them, who were wandering on the sea because they were tired, of the land. Peglar imprisons them in his sea castle. Can Marl the fairy rescue them? Told and illustrated by Pixie O'Harris.
