Summary:
One day Marina, a little mermaid, rescues a handsome prince from a shipwreck and falls desperately in love with him. She is determined to see him again, but the only way she can survive out of the water is by making a deal with an evil Sea Witch to trade her mermaid's tail for some human legs. Will she be able to make the prince fall in love with her before she is turned into sea spray at dawn?
There are many other well-known stories in this beautiful collection, including The Princess And The Pea, The Emperor's New Clothes and The Ugly Duckling. Most of them invite us to sympathise with characters who are lonely, down on their luck, or outcasts from society, and they demonstrate important lessons about the way we all treat each other in the world.
