The book follows the adventures of Shen, a mischievous dragon who befriends a young boy named Ming Lo. Together, they explore the mysteries of the sea and encounter magical creatures along the way.

Chrisman's writing is vivid and engaging, bringing the world of Shen and Ming Lo to life with rich descriptions and fantastical imagery. Each story is filled with whimsy and wonder, making it a perfect read for children who love tales of adventure and friendship.

Overall, Shen of the Sea is a charming and enchanting book that will captivate readers of all ages.
