Best-selling author Dan Alatorre sits down with his four-year-old daughter, Savannah Alatorre, and creates a story to capture the imagination of children everywhere!

Adorable

What did you love best about Laguna the Lonely Mermaid?

I think the story is very cute. It's very obviously written by a child with a great imagination. The narration was great as well.

Great!

Would you consider the audio edition of Laguna the Lonely Mermaid to be better than the print version?

I haven't read the actual book, however I would assume there is probably art to accompany the text. The audio edition does provide how characters may sound and act, which helps stimulate the imagination of the one listening. My answer is yes.

What other book might you compare Laguna the Lonely Mermaid to and why?

What does Heidi Tabing bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Heidi is a good friend of mine and what I like about her narrations is the fact that she does use different voices for her character which helps differentiate between characters as well as make the story more interactive.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
