Product Description
From the creator of Ella’s Night Lights comes a new tiny heroine—Lily, the pond mermaid, in a story about friendship, community and dealing with childhood worries and anxieties.
Ponds are lush green places, full of busy life. And some ponds, if you look hard enough, even have a secret: pond mermaids. Just like Lily. In her beloved pond home, is her whole world—all her dragonfly, damselfly, butterfly, snail, frog and fish friends. But ponds are vulnerable places and Lily worries about keeping everyone safe … and her worry grows and grows. When a storm hits the pond and everything becomes covered in a tangle of storm debris, Lily becomes overwhelmed. But then she finds, bubbling up inside, a little flicker of courage to reach out, talk about her worries and ... ask for help.

Lily is a pond mermaid. She cares for her pond and its creatures, including damselflies, dragonflies, snails, tadpoles, and her best friend, Bobbie, the frog. Lily removes trash and repairs shelters to protect the pond inhabitants but worries about the future. As a storm rages, she guides the creatures to safe places underwater. A sweet story about teamwork, restoration, and bravery when disaster strikes.
