Real Mermaids Don't Hold Their Breath
Book
Normal is Never Coming Back
Jade is totally confused. As in, "will this be a leg-day or a tail-day?" kind of confused. Even worse, it's been forever since her first kiss with Luke and now--nothing. Not even a text message.
Sigh.
But Jade doesn't have time to figure out the weirdness of boys and how to use her shiny new tail. (Seriously, being a mermaid should come with a handbook.) She has to come up with a plan to get her missing mermaid mom back on dry land.
The only problem is...Jade is afraid of the ocean. But even aqua-phobic mer-girls have to take the plunge sometime...

"The author keeps suspense high...while tapping straight into young teens' angst about friends, enemies, and boys."--Kirkus Reviews

Add a CommentMore adventures for mergirl Jade lie ahead as she and her friends have to find Jade's mom and as she tries to figure out what her relationship with the adorable Luke, who is also a Webbed One, really is. There are lots of excitement, adventure, danger and fun (and a recipe for Cori's delicious popcorn snack!) in this thrilling second book in the "Real Mermaids Don't..." series!
Great series of books: good for coming of age teens and shows what true friendship is. It also show that just beacuse were young, that doesnt mean we dont have problems!!!!! Excellent Book, Enjoy The Series!!!!
