‘Look,’ Clementine cried out. ‘There it is!’
‘You really did find a seal!’ Della said, her face crumpling into a smile.
The group was amazed to see a little seal bobbing up and down right in front of them. He swam into the cave and shot back out again as fast as a bullet. Then he rolled over and raised his flipper in the air.
Clementine grinned. ‘Did that seal just wave at us?’
‘I think he did, Clemmie,’ Uncle Digby nodded. ‘I think he did.’
