有一天，當朱利安和他的祖母從游泳池搭地鐵回家時，他注意到三位打扮得光鮮亮麗的女人。
她們的頭髮色彩絢麗，裙子尾端飾有魚尾紋，她們的歡樂氣氛充滿了整個火車車廂。
當朱利安回到家時，他幻想著自己所看到的魔法，他滿腦子想的都是穿上自己漂亮的美人魚服裝：奶油黃色的窗簾作為尾巴，盆栽蕨類植物的葉子作為頭飾。
但是阿布埃拉會如何看待他所製造的混亂—更重要的是，她會如何看待朱利安如何看待自己？
這本 2019 年石牆圖書獎得獎作品令人著迷且充滿真情，是一幅充滿歡樂的自愛圖畫，也是對個性的熱烈慶祝。

“A powerful affirmation of individuality, creative expression, and unconditional acceptance.” —Shelf Awareness (starred review)
While riding the subway home from the pool with his abuela one day, Julián notices three women spectacularly dressed up. Their hair billows in brilliant hues, their dresses end in fish tails, and their joy fills the train car. When Julián gets home, daydreaming of the magic he’s seen, all he can think about is dressing up in his own fabulous mermaid costume: a butter-yellow curtain for his tail, the fronds of a potted fern for his headdress. But what will Abuela think about the mess he makes—and even more importantly, what will she think about how Julián sees himself? Mesmerizing and full of heart, this 2019 Stonewall Book Award winner is a jubilant picture of self-love and a radiant celebration of individuality.
