The Mermaid Handbook: An Alluring Treasury of Literature, Lore, Art, Recipes, and Projects (The Enchanted Library) Hardcover – Illustrated, May 15, 2018

I purchased this book as a gift for someone who has a fascination for mermaids. She loved it! It is a lovely book, filled with images and lore that will captivate anyone who has an interest in this subject.

I found the content well researched and it contained stories, crafts and cooking that will hold the attention of most. Very interesting and whimsical.

If you love mermaids, you will love this book! I gave it to a “merfan” as a birthday gift and decided to buy one for myself. Very vibrant and elegant pages throughout the book. Has historical info as well as famous artwork and even crafts (make your own mermaid crown). This book is more for teens and adults due to the nice quality (my 3 year old would be ripping the pages out and drawing in it!) Nice coffee-table book for a house on the beach!

I enjoyed reading about the various aspects of the mermaid from around the world and also about the many DIY projects found in the book!

Very beautiful and colorful book

Price dropped by 10 bucks after I bought it, but still was a better deal than I've seen it elsewhere. It's a beautiful book. The pictures are more matte than glossy not that that's bad or good, it's just something I've noticed with a lot of coffee table-type books lately. It's denser than I thought it would be which was a nice surprise

...great gift!

I was very excited to see this book on Amazon. I already have the Faerie Handbook and absolutely love it. The illustrations are just amazing, rich folklore, craft projects and recipes. These books are gorgeous and belong in every mermaid lovers collection.
