Attractive black-and-white spot art accompanies this tale about a girl who learns, to her initial horror, that she is a mermaid. Kessler's story has more potential than success and, while the mermaid theme alone will satisfy some readers, the relatively flat characters and convenient plot devices are disappointing.
