I’m a Mermaid

From the author and illustrator of I’m a Unicorn and I’m a Dragon comes a Little Golden Book that will have your little one diving into the enchanting world beneath the waves.

I have a shimmering tail and long long hair—down to there!… I’m a mermaid!

This delightful board book invites young readers to explore the magical life of a playful mermaid and her mer-friends as they ride sea horses through coral gardens, sing songs that echo through ocean caves, and gently babysit curious dolphins. With each turn of the page, children discover the wonder of underwater adventures told in simple, rhythmic language perfect for bedtime or anytime.

The sturdy board book format is ideal for little hands that are still learning to turn pages—whether those hands are sandy from a day at Ogunquit Beach or cozy under blankets on a foggy Maine morning. The vibrant illustrations capture the shimmering, dreamy quality of life beneath the sea, sparking imagination and wonder in even the youngest readers.

A terrific addition to the beloved Little Golden Book series alongside I’m a Unicorn, I’m a Dragon, and I’m a Narwhal, this charming tale celebrates the magic of mermaids while encouraging early literacy and a love of reading. Perfect for mermaid enthusiasts, ocean lovers, and anyone who believes in a little bit of magic.
