What to expect

Bloomsbury presents Bad Mermaids by Sibéal Pounder, read by Jess Hayles.
_______________

'You'll laugh your tail off' – Rob Biddulph
_______________

The first book in the hilarious Bad Mermaids series for kids aged 7+, from the bestselling author of Witch Wars

Mermaids Beattie, Mimi and Zelda are enjoying a summer on land with legs when they receive a strange CRABAGRAM ordering them to return home at once. Some seriously BAD MERMAIDS are on the loose and the girls are the only ones who can stop them.

If they’re going to save the day, they’ll need answers. And a clam car. Definitely piranha-print nail polish. Possibly not the talking seahorse.

CAN THEY DO IT?

Filled with magical mysteries, fabulous fashion, and a serious piranha problem, Bad Mermaids brings a whole new twist to the underwater world of mermaids. If you enjoyed The Little Mermaid, you'll love this too!

Critics Review

Twenty thousand laughs under the sea. Dive into a fin-tastic, madcap adventure that’s funnier than being tickled by a giant octopus. Bad Mermaids – swimming with snarks

AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR David Solomons

From the author of the brilliantly funny Witch Wars comes a brand new series set in an underwater shell-studded metropolis. Get ready for some feisty mermaids, evil piranhas and magical mystery mayhem

Bookseller

Funny, fishy and FANTASTIC (and that says a lot coming from someone with a mermaid fear)

BESTSELLING AUTHOR Pamela Butchart

Bad Mermaids is tons of fun: stylish, packed with laughs and boasting a fab talking seahorse. The Little Mermaid meets Gossip Girl

Abi Elphinstone

You'll laugh your tail off – another winner from our favourite author

BESTSELLING AUTHOR Rob Biddulph

Sibéal has done it again. Bad Mermaids is a fishy romp through a hilarious new world, rich in the kind of gorgeous detail that young readers love. Crabagram just in – Bad Mermaids is hilarious!
