A girl is fishing in the ocean with her frog buddy when they spot their reflections in the water. They make faces at their reflections, which mimic their every move--until their likenesses transform into a mermaid and her own frog. Soon all four are enjoying an underwater splash together. Although that's all there is story-wise to this wordless book, the summery, swirling art is divine.
