CECELIA is a clever little girl who can do many things, even write her name in pen. But she has a problem that won't go away: she wets her bed. She doesn't mean to do it!

Then one night Cecelia has the most wonderful dream, about a little mermaid who reveals that she, too, has had this difficulty. Small bed-wetters will be reassured by Jeanne Willis's gentle rhyming story, most charmingly illustrated by Penelope Jossen.
