Book Review: To Catch A Mermaid
Summary: 5 Stars
The story To Catch A Mermaid is about a boy named Boom and his sister Mertle. They find a merbaby in the reject seafood bucket. They take care of the merbaby until they find out she can give them a curse. When Mertle gets the curse, they set out to find the merbaby's mother.
My favorite character is Winger. He is Boom's best friend. I liked him because he is unique and funny.
My favorite part of the book is when Mertle wishes for it to be warm. The merbaby grants her wish and a palm tree grows out of their toilet. It is hilarious.
I liked this book alot. I thought it was a fantastic book. It would be amazing to find a mermaid. I would recommend this book to people who like adventure and troublesome mermaids. A.G.
Summary of To Catch a Mermaid
Boom Broom doesn't think his life could get any worse. Ever since his mother was swept away by a twister, his family has gone crazy. They refuse to leave the house and Halvor, the Viking descendant who rents the room over their garage, will only cook fish for Boom and his sister Mertyle to eat.When Boom finds a baby mermaid who seems to grant unlimited wishes, he thinks his luck has turned around. That is, until his sister is hit by the curse of the merfolk and starts to turn green. Now Boom and his best friend Winger must find a way to return the foul-tempered merbaby to its mother and save Mertyle before it is too late.
