The Mermaid Atlas: Merfolk of the World by Anna Claybourne

5.0

Really wonderful illustrations!! It's well laid out, and the story flows nicely whether it's a single page spread or the little stories across both pages. The stories themselves are really well balanced between a non-fiction and fairytale vibe. I knew about some of these stories but there were a lot I didn't -- I had a really great time reading and learning about more mermaids! I also really like that instead of focusing on just one area, the book moved around the planet (and even space which is awesome). The informational pages were nice dividers, giving readers a break between some of the areas. It was good to have a bookend to the sections.
