BUYING ADVISORY: Pre-K - ADVISABLE


AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH


Mermaids Fast Asleep is a bedtime story.  It reads like a lullaby—way down deep, way down deep, are there mermaids fast asleep?  A young girl wonders if mermaids down under the water have bedtime like humans.  And if so, do they count fish instead of sheep?  The illustrations are whimsical and colorful.


A perfect bedtime story for a mermaid enthusiast.  The illustrations feel soft and muted, like night is falling.
