A captivating, eco-conscious story about water-wasting mermaids--and
the basis for the award-winning, stop-motion animated short film.
Mermaids on Mars is a sweet tale that educates children on the
importance of water conservation. Beautifully illustrated, it includes
simple water-saving tips that our Martian mermaid friends want to share
with kids all over the world--after ignoring them on their own home
planet and learning a most important lesson. Their story and their
wisdom will help everyone save Earth's most precious resource.
"A whimsical story about mermaids--when they lived on Mars. Mermaids
thrived in Mars' crater pools and used up all of the water resources,
splashing around. Thanks to a very cool rocket ship, the mermaids
traveled to Earth and settled in our oceans. Mermaids also helps
children learn the importance of water conservation."
