Might be too traumatizing.
"Weird alphabet books. I'll look." Dot turned to the nearest shelf and pulled out a few books, reading over the covers and then tapping on them with her fist. All about the same hardness, and all of them in English. She happened to be in the section on aquatic plants, which might have something on Mermish. If he wanted.
Books in Mermish were definitely a step in the right direction...NOT that Gabe could mentally respond to her thoughts. He wasn't a mind reader...So, naturally, he had to make words.
"....Different....languages." Preferably.
With eyes still partically on the little person, he perused the shelves...BUT HE HAD HER IN HIS SIGHTS. NO. FUNNY. BUSINESS.
