This beautifully illustrated book is about the journey of a young mermaid who is willing to give up her life in the name of love. Because of the strong love towards the prince, the little mermaid changes her fishtail for a pair of slender legs. Her efforts are lost on the prince who mistakes her with someone else as his lifesaver. Having lost her chance to return to life in the ocean, she dies and turns into a seafoam.

Hans Christian Andersen
Hans Christian Andersen (2 April 1805 – 4 August 1875) was a Danish author. Although a prolific writer of plays, travelogues, novels, and poems, he is best remembered for his literary fairy tales.
Andersen’s fairy tales, consisting of 156 stories across nine volumes and translated into more than 125 languages, have become culturally embedded in the West’s collective consciousness, readily accessible to children, but presenting lessons of virtue and resilience in the face of adversity for mature readers as well. His stories have inspired ballets, plays, and animated and live-action films.
