Children’s Book

Marina and the Mermaids
by Linne Halpern

Join Marina as she learns to face her fears and become as brave as the mermaids she admires!

Marina lives near the beach and dreams of swimming in the ocean, just like a mermaid. But her fear of the deep, dark ocean has always kept her on dry land. The ocean may be where mermaids make their home, but it can also be a scary place, full of swordfish and salmon and sharks! 

When her lucky bracelet ends up in the water, Marina must venture into the ocean for the first time and learn to be as brave as a mermaid.

“With beautiful illustrations and a timeless lesson, Marina and the Mermaids is the perfect story for teaching young explorers about the value of diving into new experiences.”

If you are a bookstore or a children’s boutique interested in carrying Marina and the Mermaids, please reach out to Linne directly!
