Mermaids on a Mission to Save the Oceans by Janet Balletta (Goodreads Author), Alyssa Figueroa (Illustrator), Alexander C. Appello (Illustrator)
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/38089580-mermaids-on-a-mission-to-save-the-oceans
Great tool for teachers and good read for children #MermaidsonaMissiontoSavetheOcean
Mermaids on a Mission, as
the title implies, is a book about seven mermaids who protect the ocean from
mankind’s pollution. Each of the mermaids have a special power that allows them
to save the valuable oceans and special creatures and plant life. The
conversation between the mermaids describes the culture and characteristics of
each of them. I love Fina from South America and her mission to protect injured
animals in Aqua Pura.
Teachers have an excellent tool to teach children how important the oceans are
by following the example and action the mermaids did to keep the waters clean
from pollutants.
The illustrators, Alyssa Figueroa and Alexander C. Appello, created brilliant
illustrations that make the story enjoyable to read to young children.
The author Balletta includes a helpful Teacher's Guide which introduces
vocabulary, discussion questions on a deep and well research topic.
Congratulations Mrs. Balletta!
Mermaids on a Mission to Save the Oceans is most highly recommended.

The Golden Seahorse is a mythical
character that helps a little girl faces her fears to swim. A girl named

mother told her not to be afraid because in the ocean there was a golden
seahorse that would rescue her.
It is a
