What to expect
Mermazing action-packed underwater adventures for young readers. From the authors, illustrator, and narrator of the bestselling Unicorn Academy series.
Hidden deep beneath the waves is Mermaid Academy, a magical school where mermaids are paired with their very own dolphin and must discover their unique mermaid magic, with plenty of adventure along the way!
Aurora is terrified when Lilac Star goes on a dive to the Twilight Zone. But it's not just the strange-looking deep-sea creatures that have her scared. She's sure something else is down there, something huge and dangerous. But can she make anyone believe her in time to save the school?
Mermaid Academy is the perfect series for listeners who love magic and adventure.
Look out for more titles! Isla and Bubble, Cora and Sparkle, Maya and Rainbow, Amber and Flash and Millie and Storm.
