Rosie the little mermaid learns to make friends in this first book of the Mini Mermaid tales QUIX chapter book series that’s a spinoff of the popular Mermaid Tales series and is perfect for emerging readers. Rosie is a little mermaid who loves dancing with dolphins and building towering sandcastles. But she’s just moved to Trident City and doesn’t have one single friend to join her. She’s too young to go to Trident Academy with her older cousin Rocky, her parents are busy at work, and Manny Nanny, who takes care of Rosie, can be kind of boring, even though she’s super nice. Then, Rosie meets Aqua and finds that having a new friend might be more trouble than it’s worth!
I first started dreaming about being a writer when I read picture books to my first grade students. The dream got bigger when I became a school librarian. Luckily for me, a fellow teacher had the same dream. Marcia Thornton Jones and I wrote together for a year and a half during our lunch period. Then we had a really bad day that turned into our first book, Vampires Don’t Wear Polka Dots. Our first story became a series and my love of series writing was born. I found that students feel a security in what they can expect from characters in a series. My newest series is Mermaid Tales. Third grade merstudents have adventures in school and with ocean creatures!
