Emily the Little Mermaid
by: Lia Arjono

On one of her many adventures on the seabed, Emily found a magic mirror that shows her the world on land. She already knew that humans walked around on two legs, but she had no idea that they could do much more, like play leapfrog or hopscotch, tap dance or run around in three-legged races. She's now working hard to invent mermaid-versions of these games, such as leapfish, tail dance and the three-finned race.
