So … a mermaid in a wheelchair/stroller and a decapitated dog’s head. Underwater? I don’t even want to know what the seahorse is doing to that plant. So one person illustrated this and someone else assembled the illustrations–whew, boy, that bodes bad even without looking at the results.

Okay, I keep going back to that vehicle. It’s like a wheelchair with stroller wheels. Or a shopping cart base with a wheelchair seat. Whatever…Yikes!

I’m assuming this is a children’s book. Makes me sad just thinking about that.

This cover reeks of amateurism. Wonder what the contents are like. But not enough to open the Look Inside.

What in the world is “illustration assembly”?

A book about how disabled girls can be amazing princess mermaids just like regular girls sure is a nice concept.

It is a pity that this appears to have been designed with little blind girls in mind instead of those in wheelchairs.

Dead puppies
Toy Wheelchair Strollers
and
Disabled mermaids.

I’m sure there’s a Beat Farmers song in here somewhere.

Um… sorry if I’m nit-picking, but how in the world does one roll ANY thing along the bottom of the ocean?

Wouldn’t the mermaid have to be weighted down? Why not just give her floats and let her paddle around with those webbed hands?

Too bad the dog drowned.

Maybe that’s supposed to be a mud puppy and he’s really OK under water.

Bikini Logic must be in full effect.
Much like in Spongebob, it is only water if it needs to be water.

It’s a Dobereel. It hunts by lying motionless on the bottom of the ocean with its eel parts concealed so its prey approach, thinking it is a drowned Dobermann, and then it pounces.
