A mermaid-tale mutiny

After a fishing captain captures Shark Girl in a net, she turns to a sea witch for help and takes on a human sailor’s guise. Her revenge plan becomes a mutiny, but carrying it out depends on winning over her crewmates. The setup gives this picture book a playful swashbuckling frame for a story about resisting harm to one’s home waters and standing up to a powerful adversary. Its familiar mermaid-tale ingredients are reshaped around a shark heroine and a shipboard crew.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Picture-book readers ages 4–8
