SUMMARY

Julia Alvarez shows that unfounded biases are often untrue in this retelling of a Dominican folk tale. The Ciguapas-a kind of mermaid-live in the ocean and avoid human contact because they believe humans will imprison them. When one of the Ciguapas gets too close, she learns that humans aren't all bad. Beautifully flowing words and dreamlike illustrations bring the sea and the island to life.
