A story to be enjoyed by those aged 4 through 8. In this story Princess Nicole breaks the rule never to go swimming alone.is captured by the crew of Captain J. Lee Fish, the nasty pirate!
When the other mermaids got wind of Princess Nicole's capture, a plan was hatched and the rescue was underway! This story teaches every mermaid the importance of following the rules and shows how, by working together, they were able to rescue the princess and send Captain J. Lee Fish and his crew swimming off to the far corners of the seven seas.
Michael DiPinto did an outstanding job of delivering a lesson along with a lovely story. It has received the much coveted seal of approval from my grands! I hope DiPinto will continue to put his stories together and share with other little ones. There can never be too much reading material for parents or grandparents to share with kids, there is nothing more important than learning to love reading. Stories like this will help develop that.

I got this book for my 8 year old niece. She loves the ocean and is very adventurous, so I thought this would be perfect for her. It is an easy read and introduces children to sea life in a fun and informative way. The book is 33 pages with full color images on one side and text on the other. I would recommend this book to anybody who has a little girl with an imagination!

My kids love this sea adventure! It's charming and imaginative with all kinds of fish and sea creatures. It's a good read for a restless mind on a summer's night.

Thank you, Michael DiPinto, for writing this wonderfully written and beautifully illustrated, Princess Mermaid book! Besides having the beloved Mermaid, you included a pirate-like villain who my granddaughter, Emmy, laugh every time I said he name. I especially enjoyed sharing about the sea creatures with her. I look forward to reading other books to my granddaughter that you have authored.

The author really brings to life the fantasies of mermaids, this is a wonderful book for children who love mermaids, well written, beautifully illustrated and very imaginative, with a simple message of not to go swimming alone. I would highly recommend getting this book for your kids or grand kids. Makes a great gift to any child who loves mermaids.

Beautiful story that both of my children loved. It is a book kids will want you to read over and over again, and parents will enjoy it just as much. Engaging and entertaining. It is some of the best illustration I have ever seen in a children's book.

I actually won this book in a giveaway and was surprised by how absolutely gorgeous it was when I received it. The cover art and illustrations are jaw dropping and very eye catching for children. Both my son and daughter loved this story. They adored the pictures and the adventurous tale accompanying them. This book is not only fun and entertaining, but contains some great lessons for children. Highly recommend this book for both boys and girls! Great job by the author.
