The Little Mermaid

Written by Sarah Gibb

Narrated by Celia Manuel

A magical re-telling of one of the most-beloved fairy tales, which no child’s library should be without!

The Little Mermaid is curious to see the world above the water, but it’s forbidden. One day, when nobody is is looking, she slips above the waves and falls in love with a prince. Longing to see him again, she asks the Sea Witch to help her become human. But, for Sea Witch’s spell to work, the Little Mermaid must make a difficult choice . . . Will she ever see the prince again?

Based on the original story by Hans Christian Andersen, this exquisite re-imagining of the classic fairy tale, loved by generations, comes ahead of the highly anticipated Disney live-action movie, The Little Mermaid.
