G PB. When the poem on the mermaid picture above the mantel turns out to be a powerful invocation for Francis and his sister Mavis to unwittingly summon a real mermaid and more magical adventure then he ever bargained for. When the mermaid is captured by a circus, the children stage a daring midnight rescue and triumphantly return her to the sea. Nexbit (1858-1924) lived in England and dreamed of becoming a poet since she was 15. When her husband fell ill, it was up to her to support her small family which she did for the next 19 years by publishing novels, essays, articles, poems, and short stories. Her book The Story of the Treasure Seekers established her popularity. Edge wear and corner creases. Illustrated by H. R. Millar. Reprint edition.
