On a distant island near Borneo, an 8 year-old boy called Din keeps an incredible secret. He has forged a friendship with one of the rarest and shyest creatures in the ocean, a dugong – cousin to the manatee. Dugong & Din is the heart-warming true story of this friendship, of how, in the warm waters of the South China Sea, the bond between a boy and a giant sea mammal grew without limitation.

Through their adventures we uncover the mysterious behavior of dugongs and explore the incredible natural diversity of Din’s island home. The story exposes the plight of the islanders who have lived in harmony with nature for centuries, until now. The arrival of foreign fishermen with new and heavy-handed fishing techniques damages the balance of nature – and threatens to blow Din’s world apart.
