A mysterious bottle bobs through the glittering waters of Key West, carried by shimmering currents and whispering waves-and Mermaid Isla is determined to uncover the secret message inside
When Isla and her best friend Finn discover an ancient treasure map, they plunge into an exciting underwater quest. Following its clues, they race through swaying seagrass meadows, glide over a dazzling coral reef, and weave among the tangled roots of a shadowy mangrove island. Along the way, Shelly, Pico, Mermaid Maze, Captain Pelican, Ranger Rosa, and Vincent join the search for the treasure hidden beneath the sea.
But when Isla finally reaches the map's mysterious destination, she discovers something far more valuable than gold-a treasure with the power to inspire friendship, teamwork, and care for the ocean.
Mermaid Isla and the Message in a Bottle is a beautifully illustrated ocean adventure that introduces young readers to Florida Keys wildlife, marine habitats, friendship, teamwork, and ocean conservation.
Perfect for children ages 4-8, mermaid fans, young ocean explorers, classroom story time, and families who love Key West and the sea.
