In The Clamshell Show, Marnie and best friends Pearl and Orla battle stage fright to shine in the school talent competition. Ready, Steady, Swim! introduces a tough new PE teacher and a nail-biting obstacle relay testing teamwork. All Aboard! takes the class on a school trip to Queen Maretta's royal palace, with Aunt Christabel along for the ride and mischief never far behind. Save Our Seas! turns the spotlight on ocean conservation as plastic pollution threatens Mermaid Lagoon. The Spooky Shipwreck rounds off the set with a weekend trip to CORAL camp, mixing spooky fun with warm friendship and gentle mystery. Across all six stories, readers follow Marnie as she learns to listen, share and support her friends, growing in confidence with every adventure. Lucy Courtenay's witty writing pairs perfectly with Sheena Dempsey's playful illustrations, creating a cosy world that never overwhelms early readers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplete six-book Mermaid School paperback collection in one set\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFollows one likeable heroine, Marnie Blue, across a full school year of adventures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilds confidence, empathy and teamwork through gentle, relatable storylines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduces ocean conservation themes in an age-appropriate, engaging way\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCharming black-and-white illustrations throughout support developing readers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreat value gift set for children who have outgrown picture books\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nLucy Courtenay has written children's fiction since 1999, crafting warm, funny stories across picture books, early readers and middle-grade fiction.
