Ragboy by Alan Temperley
Silas is a rag-and-bone boy, a ragamuffin who makes his living by scavenging in the dirty streets of the city and beachcombing by the wild blue sea. Early one morning, after a big storm, Silas makes the greatest find of his life - a mermaid, a savage girl with a tail and sharp nails, lying injured on the beach.

He offers the mermaid shelter and protection. But Silas is only a ragged boy, and there are ruthless villains at large - ruffians who lurk in gangs in the twisting alleys, and who know that a mermaid could bring them fortunes beyond their wildest dreams...
