Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Mermaid Holidays 4
Delphine Davis · 2019
68/100
👎 Skip It
A sweet, wholesome underwater adventure with positive messages about friendship and responsibility — the Reef Rescue premise is well-suited to its target age group. The problem is that entering at book four without the earlier volumes puts new readers at a disadvantage, and the series has thin critical coverage outside Australia. Fans already in the series will enjoy it; newcomers should start at book one.
