review 1: There is a boy named Toby, who was raised by a wealthy household, but was treated as if he were an orphan child. Toby was a bright, smart, and a very clever little boy. He and his family lived by an ocean, and he had seen mermaids one day. He met a girl named Eliza, which was the only child of the Flots. The thing is that Mr.Harris, Tobys biological father, is in search for treasure, so he thinks Toby has an idea of where these valuable items could be found. So with the Captain, and Margots help, Toby helps the Flots move into their Hotel home, to keep not only themselves a secret, but their home full of treasures as a secret.
review 2: Great early reader book for about 7 years of age Toby lives in the Grand Hotel. He was found abandoned in one of the rooms as
... morea baby and has stayed even since, doing unpaid odd jobs around the hotel for the mean spirited owner Mr Harris. But then one day during a storm Cook's washing blows away and it's Cake Day, the day when a cruise ship comes to dock. Toby is sent to recover the washing and has found all but Cook's hat, he goes down onto the beach and under the pier and finds Cook's hat, on the head of a girl mermaid, Eliza. As Eliza introduces Toby to the her parents, Albert and Gayor Flot, a charming story is set in motion which solves the mystery of who Toby's parents are and brings joy back to the Grand Hotel. Great line illustrations by Peter Bailey capture each character, and the pace and length of the book is just right for an early reader less
