Mermaid School by JoAnne Stewart Wetzel & Illus by Julianna Swaney


This is an incredibly cute book with very little depth. Except for the part about the ocean--that is pretty deep. HAHAHA. Sorry. couldn't resist.  

Pretty much perfect for the younger crowd and a little overly sweet for everyone else. 

While there isn't that much point to this book, the mermaid angle, the cute illustrations, and the what-if-school-were-under-water? aspect will probably make me buy this for my school library. Kids like mermaids. 


So many fish in the sea!


The first day of Mermaid school! 


Totally cute pictures and rhyme-yness. 


My six year old daughter loved all the details--the kelp door hanging, the barnacle like cubbies.... 

But WHY are their backpacks called tailpacks? They are not on their tails. It is a mystery. 


The A-B-Seas


Trumpetfish and drum fish making some dance music


Those weird, made up creatures without tails that live out of the water! 


Even mermaid school has a clip chart. 


You can't argue with adorable though.


The author even provides you with the mermaid school handbook.


Aren't my flowers pretty floating in their waterbowl?
