The Legend of Sea Glass

The illustrations are beautiful. Absolutely 5 stars. (though some of the proportions were off on the mermaids)

The story itself was clever. I thought it could be cleaned up just a little bit. The wording seemed too advanced for preschool/early gradeschool. I would have preferred 2-3 more pages. Why is there SO MUCH sea glass? Have the mermaids cried that much? What about the mermaid who was too young to help? Could she have helped?
