─Sebastian "Seabass" Zietz- Professional surfer, winner Van's Triple Crown of Surfing and lover of the ocean in all its moods.

"Through the eyes, antics and adventures of a rebellious adolescent brown pelican, Duncan weaves a memorable tale of the importance of man living in harmony with nature. As he matures, Kai realizes that giving himself to others is the best treasure he can discover."
