A Mermaid's Diary

A Mermaid's Diary

Award-winning children's book creator Chris Riddell introduces a lively cast of characters lead by mermaid Atalanta Scrimshaw, who records the adventures of her friends in her diary.

Meet shy mermaid Atalanta Scrimshaw. She lives in the quiet backwater of Sleepy Cove, collects messages in bottles, rides seahorses and enjoys the hobby of "walking" on the beach and visiting friends.

Life is perfect, until Atalanta learns of plans by developers Bristle & Splinter to transform Sleepy Cove into a luxury, seaside golf resort. Realizing that this plan will destroy her home, she enlists the help of her friends, old and new, to try to stop it.

Fully illustrated in black and white throughout, A Mermaid's Diary is the perfect beach read for fans of Chris Riddell's Ottoline and Goth Girl series'.
