Diddly Dooper Mermaid

By: Julian Bradbrook

Narrated by: Brett Houdek

Lydia and Leo are sister and brother, and they always enjoy playing together with their Diddly Dooper toys. Today, they would play with Mermaid and her pet fish.

Mermaid lived in a cave which had magical rock pools. Looking into the rock pools allowed Mermaid to see what was happening in all different places. She loved looking into her pools, maybe too much. Envy started to creep into her emotions, and she became jealous of everyone she could see in her magical rock pools.

Jealousy lead her to make some bad decisions, and the more she let her envy control her, the worse the situation became. Mermaid's pet fish became very worried and wanted to help, but how could he solve the problems?

Finally, Fish had a fantastic idea to help Mermaid. Would Fish’s solution be powerful enough? Could Fish help his best friend solve her problems?

Diddly Dooper Mermaid is a short, fun story which aims to help children understand the importance of their actions.
