Maria Mandel Dunsche's Brave Mermaids: The Treasure presents the inspiring narrative of Livi and her older sister Lexa, two great young mermaids who set off on a quest to discover a magnificent shipwreck. While exploring the area, the adorable duo comes across a mysterious, shiny treasure chest; what will its contents reveal? After repeated attempts to open it, Lexa is ready to give up, but Livi refuses. Will her determination be sufficient to open the chest, or will a sea unicorn, an octopus, a sea pup, and a dolphin intervene? Pick up the new Brave Mermaids picture book and follow the sisters on their daring trip into the deep ocean.
Brave Mermaids: The Treasure immerses young readers in Livi, Lexa, and their interested companions' quest to open the gleaming chest in the shipwreck. I loved the design of each character, as well as their unique suggestions for opening the chest; it was so much fun! The variety of individuals is also worth noting because everyone looks so different but has such a strong bond. I particularly admired Livi's perseverance in not giving up! This story features charming, lovely characters, and Livi, in addition to the foregoing, has remarkable tenacity and willpower. Maria Mandel Dunsche has created a distinctive role model for all young readers while also telling a captivating story. I enjoyed the vivid designs on each page that help to keep readers interested in each moment! I would strongly recommend this book to youngsters who want to learn about generosity and perseverance.
