Review

Search for the Mermicorn is the fourth title in the Purrmaids series by Bardhan-Quallen. Like the other three titles the illustrations are sure to please primary grade girls who adore magic and animal fantasy. The author's interest in marine science is obvious in this story line where three mermaid kittens search the ocean for their research assignment. Readers follow these adventures as the purrmaids seek mythical mermicorn creatures and interacting with friends along the way. The story is fun and fanciful but does totally fall outside reality. The conclusion is predictable and yet believable.

Fourth in series

Overall Book Score: good
