A MERMAID'S LIFE is an endless parade of dinners and dances and travel to far-away places with other members of the pod. The pod is a collection of mermaids and mermen - young and old - from the same barrier reef, island chain, or long-forgotten undersea castle or empire. Atlantis is an example of an undersea empire that is the home to hundreds of pods of mermaids and their families.Kelly's pod includes her friends and family members. Her family includes her sister Layla - also a mermaid. Her mother and dad are only half mermaid and merman. They are half-human also. The mermaid gene is dominant, so Kelly and Layla look and swim like all the other mermaids in the pod. They have a human upper body with head and arms like most humans. Their lower bodies look like a fish's body - it is green with shiny scales and a fine tail, like a dolphin or a whale. The most interesting thing about the tail is that it is a magic tail. The magic is in the tail. Just as the magic is in the carriage return, the magic is in the tail.The other interesting thing about mermaids is that they can sing magical songs that can be heard by other mermaids and mermen across great distances. The magical songs can also be heard by sailors as they sail the seven seas. The sailors listen carefully for the magical songs - also called siren songs - of the mermaids. The sailors must also be very careful not to steer their ships into the rocks where the mermaids and their families sing and play on nice, sunny days.
