review 1: Minnow, the mermaid daughter of King Neptune, can't get the normal duties right, but she does love to ask questions. One day an object (an orange shoe) appears in the ocean and becomes Minnow's obsession. Where does it come from? What is its purpose? She seeks the answers from her fellow sea creatures. Her quest and desire to know help her find her purpose. Dreamlike and calm with ocean colors both deep and vibrant, the illustrations give this one a fairytale feel. A picture book must-have.
review 2: Minnow is one of King Neptune's fifty daughters; she is insatiably curious and is considered unremarkable by her siblings. When Minnow goes on a quest to find the owner of a red shoe, she finds the answer but also learns more about herself and the world around her.
... more Campbell has written an original mermaid story that is totally unlike the Disney mermaids in tone and style that will resonate with readers of all ages. less
