Plot

Sylvia Johnson invents friends (princess, fairy etc) to play with because her parents’ cottage is so isolated in the school holidays and she has no friends to play with. So Mum and Dad are rather sceptical when Sylvia tells them she is bringing a mermaid called Myrtle to tea but decide to play along with it. But they don’t realise that this time, Sylvia is telling them the truth!
