ABOUT THE BOOK

A little mermaid explores the magical feeling of playing and creating with fishy friends in Sounds Like Joy, a colorful underwater picture book and essential read-aloud from Yesenia Moises, illustrator of tennis Olympian Serena Williams’s The Adventures of Qai Qai!

One day, Joy finds something unexpected on the ocean reef. When she shakes it, it makes a brand-new noise!

Soon, she and her aquatic animal friends are dancing to the beat and feeling amazing . . . until her “jingle-jangle” loses a few important pieces and stops making the special sound she loves.

The little mermaid’s friends spring into action with some creative noisemaking to cheer her up! How can they use what they have under the sea to make the sound she’s missing?
