I read this like a few years ago and I liked it at the time so if you're like in 5th grade you might like this book. I'm not a big fan for it anymore.

    I read this book so long ago, when I did I fell in love with it. At the time it was my favorite book, and I think that it deals with things that everyone goes through day by day, just with a little twist. That she is a mermaid.
