Written and illustrated by Harriet Muncaster, this paperback collection follows Emerald, a spirited young mermaid who would rather be herself than fit royal expectations. Perfect for newly independent readers ages 5-7 (Grades K-2), each short chapter book pairs playful black-and-white illustrations with gentle, funny storytelling about friendship, courage, and staying true to who you are. Whether picked up for bedtime, a classroom library, or a rainy afternoon, this set offers a cozy, confidence-building introduction to chapter books for young mermaid and magic fans everywhere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Books\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis five-book collection dives into the underwater world first glimpsed in Isadora Moon, following Emerald, a mermaid who doesn't feel much like a princess at all. Her spiky, wild hair refuses to sit under a royal headdress, and she'd rather explore the reef with her wriggly pet octopus, Inkibelle, than practice waving to crowds. Across the five stories, Emerald faces the everyday-sized dramas of childhood reimagined beneath the waves: a nerve-wracking royal parade, mischievous sea sprites who tempt her away from the rules, a washed-up treasure that tests her honesty, a runaway royal adventure, and a bit of magic that changes everything. Harriet Muncaster, celebrated for the original Isadora Moon series, brings the same warm humor and gentle life lessons to Emerald's watery world, wrapped in her signature charming illustrations. Each book is short enough for a single sitting yet rich enough to spark conversations about identity, friendship, and doing the right thing. Young readers who have graduated from picture books but aren't quite ready for longer novels will find these accessible chapters a satisfying next step, with plenty of white space, large type, and pictures on every spread to keep the pace lively. Fans of Isadora Moon will delight in spotting the connections between the two series, while newcomers can enjoy Emerald's adventures on their own. Together, the five titles form a complete, emotionally rounded arc that celebrates individuality without ever feeling heavy-handed, making this an ideal introduction to fantasy chapter books for early elementary readers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFive complete chapter books in one paperback set, ideal for gifting or building a home library\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWritten and illustrated by Harriet Muncaster, creator of the popular Isadora Moon series\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerfect length and reading level for ages 5-7 (Grades K-2) transitioning into chapter books\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCharming black-and-white illustrations on every spread keep young readers engaged\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGentle stories about friendship, honesty, and self-acceptance woven into fun mermaid adventures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreat for bedtime reading, classroom libraries, or independent reading practice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook-by-Book Guide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEmerald and the Ocean Parade — Emerald must decide whether to wave and smile like a proper mermaid princess or show up to the big parade as her spiky-haired, wild self.\u003cbr\u003eEmerald and the Sea Sprites — Playful sea sprites tempt Emerald to bend the palace rules, leading to a lesson about balancing freedom with friendship.\u003cbr\u003eEmerald and the Lost Treasure — While cleaning up litter on the ocean floor, Emerald finds a lost teddy bear and must decide what to do with it.\u003cbr\u003eEmerald and the Runaway Royal — Emerald finds herself swept into an unexpected royal escapade that tests her courage and quick thinking.\u003cbr\u003eEmerald and the Magic Shell — A mysterious shell brings a touch of magic into Emerald's underwater world, changing her adventure in delightful ways.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHarriet Muncaster is a British author and illustrator best known for creating the internationally popular Isadora Moon series, which follows a half-fairy, half-vampire girl navigating magical adventures.

Perfectly sized for early readers ages 5-7 (Grades K-2), each story is short, funny, and beautifully illustrated in two color, making them ideal first chapter books for bedtime, classroom libraries, or independent reading practice.

In Emerald and the Ocean Parade, she worries about disappointing the King and Queen at a big public event, while Emerald and the Sea Sprites finds her and her stepsister Delphina sneaking off to a glimmering coral reef, where they discover three tiny shimmering sea sprites and learn what real responsibility looks like. Emerald and the Lost Treasure explores honesty and generosity when a tempting find turns up in the seaweed, and Emerald and the Runaway Royal sees a visiting royal family stir up palace routines, testing Emerald's balance between duty and her own free spirit. Emerald and the Magic Shell adds another dose of undersea wonder and mischief to Emerald's world, and the collection closes with Emerald and the New Arrival, in which Emerald's mom is expecting a new baby and Emerald must work through her mixed feelings about becoming a big sister. Written by Harriet Muncaster, creator of the internationally popular World of Isadora Moon series, these stories combine gentle humor, sweet friendships, and accessible vocabulary that helps young readers transition from picture books to their first chapter books. Two-color illustrations on nearly every page keep pace with the text, giving early readers plenty of visual support as they build reading stamina and confidence one Emerald adventure at a time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSix complete paperback stories following one lovable mermaid princess character\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo-color illustrations throughout support early and emerging readers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShort chapters build reading confidence and stamina for ages 5-7\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThemes of friendship, honesty, family change, and self-acceptance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerfect follow-on read for fans of the World of Isadora Moon series\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreat gift for birthdays, holidays, or building a classroom library\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook-by-Book Guide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nEmerald and the Ocean Parade — Emerald worries about living up to royal expectations as she prepares to appear before the King and Queen at the big Ocean Parade.\u003cbr\u003e\nEmerald and the Sea Sprites — Emerald and her stepsister Delphina sneak off to a coral reef and discover three tiny shimmering sea sprites, learning about responsibility along the way.\u003cbr\u003e\nEmerald and the Lost Treasure — A tempting discovery hidden in the seaweed challenges Emerald to choose honesty and generosity over keeping a secret treasure.\u003cbr\u003e\nEmerald and the Runaway Royal — A visiting royal family shakes up palace routines, pushing Emerald to balance duty with her own free-spirited nature.\u003cbr\u003e\nEmerald and the Magic Shell — Emerald's underwater world gets a fresh dose of wonder and mischief in this magical addition to the series.\u003cbr\u003e\nEmerald and the New Arrival — Emerald feels unsure as her mom prepares to welcome a new baby, discovering that family life is full of surprises.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nHarriet Muncaster is a British author-illustrator best known for creating the World of Isadora Moon series, which follows a half-fairy, half-vampire girl and has become a favorite among early readers around the world.
