She really wants a kitten!When she discovers a family of felines onshore, Cadence can' t believe her luck. But, as the mermaid tries to play with one of the kittens, she soon discovers that cats do not like water and are very pointy in all the wrong places. Ouch!With her kitten dreams dashed, Cadence couldn' t be sadder. Is there a pet out there that can love her and the sea? Maybe there' s one right under her fin!From author Judith L. Roth and artist Jaclyn Sinquett, Cadence and Kittenfish: A Mermaid Tale reminds us to follow our hearts and our fins-and be ready for some surprises!
