Mermaid

T20845377
A thrilling reimagining of Hans Christian Andersen's tale of love, loss and desire. On her sixteenth birthday, a mermaid rises to the surface, leaving childhood behind forever when she falls in love with a mortal prince. She knows she can no longer live at the bottom of the ocean - but must she destroy herself in order to be loved?
Author Polly Teale (after Hans Christian Andersen)
