In this picture book by New York Times bestselling author Tracey Baptiste, an encounter between a Black mermaid and pirate launches a humorous tale of friendship that shows how kindness and empathy go beyond words.
A mermaid and a pirate build a friendship through kindness, empathy, and shared adventure in this heart-warming picture book by New York Times bestselling author Tracey Baptiste, with bright, bold illustrations by Leisl Adams.
Glub glub... Aargh... Mermaid and Pirate cannot understand each other. They speak different languages and come from different worlds. But they're quick to lend a hand, or a tail, when the sky grows stormy and waters get rough, and a friendship is born.
Sometimes kindness and generosity speak louder than words.
