Mermaids: The Myths, Legends, and Lore

This book is really pretty. I love the cover, love the illustrations and even love that all the font is a really pretty blue colour. What I don't like is how repetitive it is.

There is some interesting information and I really enjoyed reading it, but I'm assuming there wasn't enough information available for a whole book and so the author reiterates the same facts over and over. Which is fine for a high-school essay, it's not fine for a book.
