Prolific Dadey's (Keyholders: The Wrong Side of Magic, 2010, etc.) latest installment in her Mermaid Tales series continues to follow young mermaids through turbulent friendships.
Eight-year-old best friends Shelly and Echo are overjoyed to be starting school at the prestigious Trident Academy at the same time. Rambunctious and good-natured, together they cause mild trouble, especially in trying to find a way to make grumpy Mr. Fangtooth crack a smile.
The underwater setting adds dimension to the friendship stories. (class reports written by each character, song lyrics, author's note, glossary) – Kirkus Reviews
