Another cunning plan saved by the ladybird. I love all the glittery pages and the mermaid is beautiful.

I read this to my little brother and it is a good story with good pictures. It’s funny too, the sea lion roars and the cat fish purred lol

I like the ladybird because she never said a word. I liked the singing mermaid too.

I think this story was really good. The shark was good because he helped out by biting the flipper of the bad man who was trying to steal the mermaid's hair. I liked the Gruffalo on the beach in the puppet show. Everyone should read this book.
