This is a children's picture book about a kind-hearted girl named Lily who lives in a seaside village. It is written for young children and early readers. The story follows Lily as she walks along the beach collecting shells.
One morning Lily hears a tiny voice from the waves. She finds a young mermaid named Mira sitting behind a rock. Mira's tail is turquoise, purple and pink. Mira explains that she lost her magical shiny pearl that helps underwater flowers glow.
Lily promises to help Mira find the pearl. They search together behind rocks, beneath sea plants and between colorful shells. Lily spots something sparkling under a pile of seaweed. She moves the seaweed aside and finds the shiny magical pearl.
When Mira holds the pearl again the underwater world begins to glow. Colorful flowers open and tiny fish dance. The whole ocean sparkles like a sky full of stars. Mira tells Lily that kindness is more precious than any pearl.
Mira gives Lily a tiny glowing seashell as a reminder to share kindness. From then on Lily helps others whenever she can. Every night a little mermaid waves to her from the sparkling sea. The book ends with the lesson that a kind heart is more precious than any treasure.
