Book Synopsis A Mermaid's Tale by : Amanda Adams

Download or read book A Mermaid's Tale written by Amanda Adams. This book was released on 2009-12-01. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the seas of antiquity to the city streets of today, A Mermaid's Tale explores the myth and meanings of the mermaid. Beginning with Melusina, the bathing mermaid par excellence, Amanda Adams goes on to describe the seductive sirens and their honeyed songs, the powerful Arctic sea goddess Sedna, and the long-haired rusalki or Russian lore, among other legendary mermaids. As she tells their stories, she also expresses a love of the mermaid that surely no sea-bound sailor could ever match. Grounded in cultural anthropology, folklore studies, and intellectual rigor, A Mermaid's Tale also draws on literature, poetry, and mythology for its insights. It is a book filled with depth and detail as it describes Adam's swim through the ocean of her own life in search of the unusual, the beautiful, and the perfectly extraordinary.

Book excerpt: From Beatrice Blue, author of critically acclaimed Once Upon a Unicorn Horn, comes a beautiful, vibrant story about friendship and protecting our oceans. Theodore has a little boat and a big passion: collecting fish. He loves nothing more than discovering a new fish for his collection. But one day, he finds something he's never seen before: a tiny creature in a beautiful shell. Ignoring the voice that tells him to leave her alone, he takes her home and puts her in a tank, where she gets weaker and weaker. Can Theodore learn that the creature belongs in the ocean before it's too late? Drawn in bright yet soothing, whimsical mermaid colors, this is a bright and beautiful keepsake and a kind reminder to kids to let nature be and look after our oceans. It’s a dazzling and sparkling story of magic, friendship, and environmental conservation. This heartwarming story is the follow-up to the critically acclaimed and best-selling Once Upon A Unicorn Horn and Once Upon a Dragon's Fire.

Surely all those stories about Two-Legs (you know, humans) and sea monsters are just made up to scare young merpups.

With fun full-color illustrations by the author herself, this adventure is sure to capture all two-legged chapter-book readers! “Cornelia Funke . . . has written her way into the hearts and imaginations of audiences worldwide.”—Clive Barker, Time magazine
