MERMAID AND PIRATE is a cute, simple picture book about connecting with others, even when you don't speak the same language. A mermaid and pirate have a chance meeting and build a friendship through shared experience and helping each other, even though they have no idea what the other one is trying to say.
What I loved: The illustrations here are quite lovely, capturing the emotions of the mermaid and pirate well, and showing all the things we can share and communicate, even without words. The pages are full of color and fun ocean details. The story line is simple, but it gets the message across with some sounds for what they hear from each other that little ones may get into.
The font is easy to read throughout, and the story moves quickly, which will work well for a variety of ages. I would recommend this for preschoolers and up, as they will understand the messaging a bit better, but toddlers would likely enjoy this story too.
Final verdict: MERMAID AND PIRATE is a sweet picture book about making new friends and connections, even when you speak different languages.
