BUYING ADVISORY: Pre-K, EL (K-3) – ADVISABLE

AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH

Uni and his friend are collecting treasures on the beach when they come across a real-live mermaid! Together they go on an adventure to all their favorite places above ground that the mermaid has never seen before, helping her collect treasures of her own to take back home under the sea.

A sweet story of friendship and helping. Younger students are going to love the bright, colorful illustrations and the combination of a unicorn and a mermaid. The little memory jar the unicorn helps the mermaid make could be a fun project for students, especially at the end of the year as a reflection activity.
