Once Upon a Mermaid's Tail by Beatrice Blue

4.0

This is a beautifully illustrated picture book encouraging children to look after all the plants and animals on our planet. I loved the story of Theodore, the little boy who loved to collect all kinds of different fish. On finding a special little creature (the mermaid) he was desperate to keep her but unfortunately she could only survive and thrive in the ocean. So many children will relate to this story and I would definitely use it in school with Early Years or Key Stage One children. As well as discussing the important messages that come out of the story I could imagine doing some lovely creative artwork using some of the lovely illustrations in the book. Thank you to Frances Lincoln Children's Books and NetGalley for this eARC.
