Abadamabal and the Mermaid is an adventure story about a cat named Abadamabal and his four friends who face the challenge of rescuing a mermaid from the formidable trap of pirates.

Abadamabal and the Mermaid is the first book that resulted from student work in Kid Scribes, a creative writing and desktop publishing class conducted by Excelsus Foundation at schools and other nonprofits nationwide.
