About This Book

On a stifling summer day in the city, Kate's family travels by crowded bus and subway to the cool, refreshing seaside. While splashing at the ocean's edge, Kate's mind wanders and she becomes Donnatalee, mermaid of the sea. Beneath the cool, clear water, Donnatalee frees herself from the confines of the city and blows bubbles with blowfish, duels with sharks, rides a galloping sea horse, and becomes King Neptune's queen. Then Daddy calls his Kate, and they all return to the city, tide-washed and sun-dried, with pleasant memories-and a few souvenirs of their day at the beach.
