'You'll laugh your tail off' – Rob Biddulph
_______________
The second book in the hilarious Bad Mermaids series for kids aged 7+, from the bestselling author of Witch Wars
Mermaids Beattie, Mimi and Zelda, along with Steve the talking seahorse, are trapped aboard the spooky ship the Merry Mary, heading for the legendary (and super-stylish) Crocodile Kingdom. On land, Paris Silkensocks, ice-cream seller and GADGET QUEEN, has uncovered a plot to destroy the mermaid world.
Can Paris find the mermaids in time? Can Beattie avert a Crocodile Kingdom crabtastrophe? Can seahorses get seasick? All this and more will be revealed!
Featuring magical mysteries, fabulous fashion and a snappier than average transport system, the second Bad Mermaids adventure brings a whole new twist to the underwater world of mermaids. If you enjoyed Witch Wars or The Little Mermaid, you’ll love this!
Critics Review
-
Twenty thousand laughs under the sea. Dive into a fin-tastic, madcap adventure that’s funnier than being tickled by a giant octopus. Bad Mermaids – swimming with snarks
Award-winning author David Solomons

From the author of the brilliantly funny Witch Wars comes a brand new series set in an underwater shell-studded metropolis. Get ready for some feisty mermaids, evil piranhas and magical mystery mayhem
