Half-kitten, half-mermaid best friends Coral, Angel, and Shelly love school, swimming, exploring the ocean, and accessorizing with treasures and jewelry. The purrmaids' strong friendship is the main draw as simplistic plots center on easily resolved problems and barely developed characters. With its occasional black-and-white illustrations, this new series is aimed at young readers who enjoy stories about anthropomorphized creatures.
