Editorial Reviews

Product Description
The Bailey School Kids set out to uncover the secrets of their beautiful, singing track coach, who bears a striking resemblance to a mermaid whom the children have seen in a picture.

About the Author

5.0 out of 5 stars Well Written Kids' Story, March 25, 2004
By A Customer
Mermaids Don't Run Track is a good book for 3-5th graders. The characters are action oriented from the first page, and immediately face two interesting mysteries concerning the camp director and the track coach. The Bailey School kids suspect one is a werewolf and the other a mermaid. The art work is also very good and adds detail and interest to the story. The book is approximately 7,000 words long.

A similar book for the same age group which I would recommend is "Abby and the bicycle caper."

4.0 out of 5 stars Liked how Eddie was always trying to be the big shot., November 27, 1997
By A Customer
My name is Leigh. I liked that Eddie tried to be always a smart aleck. And how he said that he would prove that Mrs. Waterford wasn't a mermaid. And whenever they got in the lake, Eddie would try to splash her. And I liked when Eddie pulled Liza in the water.
