Batcat just wants a peaceful beach day but they are roped into solving a mysterious ailment plaguing the skeleton mermaids of Spooky Island. The resulting quest forces Batcat to face some of their deepest fears! But luckily friends are never far away. Another silly, joyful, and brightly colored adventure in the Batcat world :)
This was also very cute. The resolution was a little weird but I liked the message of the book.

Thank you, Netgalley, for this e-ARC!
Batcat had an excellent adventure in volume 1, and now they (and there is a section on non-binary facts in the back of the book) are back living with their ghost friend, Al, but craving some alone time. Batcat heads to the beach to relax and read (but not swim). They finds that the coast is packed with skeleton mermaids. I have never considered skeleton mermaids, so this experience was new. The skeleton mermaids are upset because they are losing their vibrant colors after getting stung by something. Batcat begins their hunt to find out who is stealing the mermaids' color. Of course, things don't go quite as planned and Al joins in the quest. Fish tacos are involved, and this book is sure to be a hit with young readers.

Cute. Not quite as cute as the first one, but definitely still delightful. I like the inclusion of the how to draw the characters pages.
