(4) YA Eighteen-year-old Crown Princess Waterlily (Forgive My Fins; Fins Are Forever) advises the ocean's kingdoms to work peacefully to fix the merworld's troubled ecosystem. But some rulers would rather wage war--on humans and each other; the half-human, half-mermaid must convince them otherwise before it's too late. Childs's evocative mer-language creates a richly detailed world, but a repetitious plot bogs down the narrative.
