Seasick Sea Horse - Purrmaids
Seasick Sea Horse - Purrmaids

Magical kitten-mermaids on undersea pet adventure.

If your child is drawn to mystical creatures and the charm of underwater worlds, then 'Seasick Sea Horse' by Sudipta Bardhan-Quallen will be a delightful dive. The hybrid concept of catlike mermaids (purrmaids) is imaginative and quirky, perfect for kids who love animals and fairytales alike. Plus, the theme of taking responsibility for a class pet adds both fun and a gentle lesson in accountability.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Part kitten, part mermaid, the Purrmaids series is purrfect for chapter book readers and for fans of the Magic Kitten and Fairy Animals of Misty Wood series! And the purrfect class pet for the Purrmaids? A sea horse! But what happens when he goes missing? Ms. Harbor's classroom has a new pet. A sea horse! The students are excited to take care of the little guy during the week. And on weekends, someone gets to bring the sea horse home for a visit! Shelly is the first purrmaid to bring him home . . . and he gets lost! Shelly asks her friends to help her find him before they have to be back at school. Can the purrmaids find the little seahorse in time? The adorable mermaid-kittens in this chapter book series will have readers paw-sitively hooked from page one!
