Book Type: Children's Literature Author: Francesca Rossi Pages: 64 Summary(goodreads.com): When she falls in love with the prince she rescues during a storm, the Little Mermaid sells her voice to a witch for the chance to become human. But if her prince doesn't love her back, she could lose it all . . . My Review: The Little Mermaid is a timeless classic mermaid story. While some authors use amazing illustrations and words with their rendition, others fall a little flat. I would say this book falls into the mix of good and bad. While the mermaids in this book are beautiful, the background colors fall a little flat. The ocean is full of life and color, and the illustrations do not portray this. Although the text is somewhat like the original Anderson version, the ending is vastly altered. So is this the original The Little Mermaid? You be the judge! I give this book (***) 3 stars. -Sirenita The Selkie
