Pearl by Molly Idle

5.0

A beautiful book about a mermaid named Pearl that reads like a fable. Each mermaid has an important role to fulfill in the ocean and Pearl becomes upset when hers is taking care of a single grain of sand. Through Pearls care the sand forms into a pearl that grows everyday until it becomes the full moon. By the end of the book Pearl better understands her role which she learns to love. The illustrations are beautiful but can be small sometimes and would be better enjoyed in a one-on-one setting.
