Why is Mary Margaret so crazy about mermaids and latitude & longitude?
Reading about mermaids, and wondering about mermaids are two of her favorite things to do (after swimming of course). As for latitude and longitude, Mary Margaret likes to know where people and places are in the world. She likes to use latitude and longitude to find locations on a map or globe. She also likes to think about where in the world she might get to travel someday, so knowing about latitude and longitude helps her dream up future travel adventures. Please see the latitudes & longitudes below.

On your About the Author page, you said you were writing another book about Mary Margaret. Where will she travel next?
