Oona by Kelly DiPucchio

4.0

I adore Oona - Black mermaids for the win! Stunningly gorgeous illustrations - Raissa Figueroa is one to watch! The story itself was a bit curious - it's about perseverance & bravery & what treasures really have value, yet it didn't feel like the reason for needing courage to face the unknown or why she was seeking treasure and needed to keep at it were clear early in the story making the resolution of them a bit less rewarding.
