Description
|
|
|
|
This book collects two classic mermaid tales—one from the West and one from the East—for readers of all ages, illustrated with Susanna Lockheart's delicate, atmospheric watercolors, several of which change from one image to another as the page is turned. A mermaid saves the life of a drowning prince and falls in love with him in The Little Mermaid, and though she gives up her voice in exchange for legs and a chance to be his human bride, this retelling lends a happy ending to the Hans Christian Andersen story. In the Japanese folktale The Magic Shell, a poor boy who does a good deed for a mermaid is rewarded with a beautiful seashell that tells him how to save the life of the emperor's daughter.
