Julián Is A Mermaid

In an exuberant picture book, a glimpse of costumed mermaids leaves one boy flooded with wonder & ready to dazzle the world. While riding the subway home from the pool with his abuela one day, Julián notices three women spectacularly dressed up. Their hair billows in brilliant hues, their dresses end in fishtails, & their joy fills the train car. When Julián gets home, daydreaming of the magic he's seen, all he can think about is dressing up just like the ladies in his own fabulous mermaid costume: a butter-yellow curtain for his tail, the fronds of a potted fern for his headdress. But what will Abuela think about the mess he makes — & even more importantly, what will she think about how Julián sees himself? A beautiful hardcover story book written & illustrated by Jessica Love.
