The triplet mermaid princess have a fight over who will be the next queen. Their queen mother, however, tells them they aren’t ready to be queen - that the queen will be someone who is a good sister and a protector. The girls have a hard lesson to learn about ruling.
The mermaid princesses are African - and the back matter contains a bit of information about African mermaid mythology. I know little girls love mermaids - and the lesson is amongst the adventure, so it isn’t didactic.
