The Talented Turtle Katie Hauenstein

Mary Mason begged her mother to homeschool her, but she got sent to Thalassa Boarding School anyway. Being the shyest among her cousins, she is unsurprised to be sorted into the Turtle Wing. Even with them, she is still an outcast until two mergirls, Kona and Star, stand up for her when she is being bullied. When her teacher announces that all first year students have to perform in the annual talent show in a group of three, Mary is very nervous. Her only two friends aren't in her class and no one else is interested in having her in their group. What will happen when she is forced to be in a group with her biggest tormentors? Can they get past their differences to put on an amazing performance or will they be humiliated?
