    Got this book after reading Swimming with the fishes, by the same author.
    Story about a mermaid, who is a little on the tough side. Living in the human world. Humorous. Like this author.

    Surprisingly lively discussion of Pluto's history with science and humor mixed nicely.

    I thought I would really enjoy this book, but I'm having a hard time getting into it. I guess I'll keep trying.

    I am now doing my annual reading of "More Mouse Tales" by David Koenig. It's a great read cause it has way more cast member stories than "Mouse tales."
