Bookroo's summary

Young Donald and his friends stumble upon a mysterious creature by the water, sparking fear and confusion. As their memories blur, Donald's grandmother steps in to unravel the truth behind the magical encounter. What did they truly see, and how will it change their understanding of the world?

From the publisher

When young Donald and his friends head down to the water to play, they have no idea that they are soon to encounter a mermaid, one of the creatures that his elders have told him about. Terrified, the boys run back to their camp, ready to tell everyone what they have just seen. But what did they see? They can’t seem to remember it clearly. It is up to Donald’s grandmother to explain to them the magical creature they just encountered.
