And what if the teachers assume she’s just like her Aunt Christabel, a famous singer who was a troublemaker growing up. However, Marnie is a very nice mermaid, so she helped the mean girl, Orla, when her family was in trouble. A lot of thought has gone into the sort of classes a mermaid would have and the way their world operates. Like all good school stories, there are scary teachers, a mean girl, adventures and lessons learnt about the importance of being true to oneself and the importance of good friends.

Hidden deep beneath the waves is Mermaid Academy, a magical school where mermaids are paired with their very own dolphin and must discover their unique mermaid magic, with plenty of adventure along the way!

The teacher gives her a warning and tells her so won’t tolerate another member of the Blue family behaving in an unruly manner. The charming story perfectly captures all the worries and anxiousness of first days, and shows that, no matter how alone you feel, there's always someone there for you. Mermaid School is the first in an exciting new series written by Lucy Courtenay and illustrated by Sheena Dempsey, following the adventures of Marnie Blue and friends. There will be lots of fun things to do, like playing with the water catapult and singing round the bubble fire.

All of our books are 100% brand new, unread and purchased directly from the publishers in bulk allowing us to pass the huge savings on to you! The sale of customised goods or perishable goods, sealed audio or video recordings, or software, which has been opened.It puts an image in my head of a magical school under the sea, where mermaids and talking sea creatures swim. The story of what happens to Marnie and how the whole book ends is very good and I like the way that Marnie thinks and acts towards everyone, and I like the message of friendship and being nice to others regardless of what may happen. This story really feels much more fun and lovely to read because of the cute pictures and I can’t help but love the cover too which features some shiny silvery parts. Her desk drawers are full of half-finished stories waiting for the right moment to emerge and dance around her study in a shower of exuberant paperclips.
