Mermaid Dreams

(3) PS Illustrated by Liz Pope & Kate Pope. As Meriam reluctantly does her bedtime chores, she tells her mother about her day, describing how she "lay in the sand" and dived in the ocean: "Deep as deep as deep." Showing only the upper half of her body, the cheery, detailed art depicts Meriam frolicking in the sea, until--amusingly--the last illustrations reveal that she's a mermaid.
