Description
When a hurricane threatens to harm the underwater homes of the merpeople, it is up to India Finch, a part-human/part-mermaid teenager, to warn her ocean friends. The mer decide to seek calmer waters, and as they travel, they are attacked by a giant squid, with India at the centre of harm's way. Gravely injured, India depends on the merfolks' willingness to risk their own safety to get her ashore where her injuries can be treated. Will the prejudice many mer hold against humans leave India at the end of her journey? Reader tools include a glossary and discussion questions in this hi-lo novel for reluctant and struggling readers.

Person
Although Julie Gilbert's masterpiece, The Adventures of Kitty Bob: Alien Warlord Cat, has sadly been out of print since Julie last stapled it together in the fourth grade, she continues to write. Her short fiction, which has appeared in numerous publications, explores topics ranging from airport security lines to adoption to antique wreaths made of hair. Julie makes her home in southern Minnesota with her husband and two children.
