What is How to Spot a Mermaid about?

Two excited mermaid hunters set off on a seaside search for their favourite mythical creatures. They look by the lifeguard’s chair, along the harbour wall and from a boat, but every possible mermaid turns out to be something else. With binoculars at the ready, the friends keep searching through a lively coastal adventure filled with rhyme, surprises and playful mistakes. Will they finally spot a real mermaid, or is one hiding somewhere unexpected?
