Lily the Pond Mermaid

Reach for this book when your child is feeling like they don't quite fit in or is beginning to notice the ways they are different from their peers. Lily the Pond Mermaid tells the gentle story of a little mermaid who doesn't live in the vast ocean, but in a small, cozy pond. She feels lonely, as she's not quite like the fish and not quite like the frogs. This charming early chapter book follows her journey of self-discovery as she learns that her unique qualities are a source of strength and magic. It's a perfect conversation starter for children ages 6 to 8 about identity, belonging, and the beauty of being yourself.
