What is this undersea book about?


“I love, love, LOVE every page!! Such a wonderful imaginative gift to the world!” - Shannon Wianecki.


Imagine falling into the sea and landing in an underwater world where all of the animals have mertails. That’s exactly what happened to Merologist Judi Riley and fortunately she never travels far without her field journal.

Back from MerKingdom, Judi Riley has assembled the world’s most extensive collection of exquisitely illustrated MerKins in their natural habitat accompanied by an absolute smorgasbord of MerKingdom artifacts, observations and curiosities in a scrapbook style field journal.

Discover how the Merthern Lights are made, what MerIggy (a pig with a mertail) eats besides posh pies, and why Meroxy (a fox with a mertail) is forever stealing your keys.
