About this ebook
Unleash the Magic of Summer With Maybe a Mermaid
Dive into an extraordinary summer adventure with our eleven-year-old protagonist, Anthoni Gillis. Not one to give into fantasies of fairies and unicorns, Anthoni is a comic-book girl through and through.
So when her mom brings her to Thunder Lake for a summer at the Showboat Resort, she doesn’t believe the local rumors about the Boulay Mermaid.
Anthoni has bigger fish to fry. She’s always wanted a True Blue Friend. But it’s been hard to find one, since for the past five years she’s been bouncing from town to town, helping her mother sell Beauty & the Bee cosmetic products to keep them both afloat. This summer will be different, though. Anthoni has a plan—a foolproof checklist for making lifelong friends! There won’t be any maybes this time.
Armed with a foolproof checklist, she is determined that this summer won't be filled with maybes. Yet, as she finds her mother's truths stretching thin and her own resolve tested, she's faced with a crucial decision: stick diligently to her plan or immerse herself in an ocean of possibilities.
Maybe a Mermaid is a vibrant, captivating debut from Josephine Cameron that raises timeless questions about truth, lies, and the hope that grows between them.
