A special moon, two friends and a night to never forget as sea creatures become land explorers in this dazzling seaside spectacle.
Despite one living in the ocean and the other living on land, mermaid Merrin and human Molly were the best of friends. Merrin has never been on land before; how could she when she has to stay underwater. The Mermaid Moon festival will change all that. For one night in the town of Morpeth, sea creatures can take to the skies and explore the human world. There’ll be a market, a band, hot chocolate, and best of all, Merrin can finally see Molly’s home. Merrin just needs to remember one rule…must be back in the water before the moon’s reflection disappears from the sea to prevent the magic disappearing forever.
It is the perfect evening until the girls run into a problem. With the magic of the Mermaid Moon hanging precariously in the balance, Merrin needs the help of an ocean friend. But will help come in time or will the magic be lost forever…
