Sailor Twain: Or, the Mermaid in the Hudson by Mark Siegel

4.0

This is a great story, and beautifully illustrated. It was the talk of the town when it first came out in hardcover, and I can see why. And, of course I loved it, not least because it features a mermaid! But, a word of caution: the mermaid is topless, so it might not be the best read to bring with you on a public commute (I speak from experience).
