Full of wonder, this is a stunning collection of enchanting Mermaid tales with a timeless and universal appeal. A very nice collection of tales. The value of this book lies in its cultural scope. How intriguing to note that water maidens play a significant role in the folk lore of such diverse cultures! This book is very extraordinary and not like any other.

This wonderful book written by Beth Camp puts mermaid’s into a different light. This book is wonderful for all ages. It will keep you intrigued to the very end. Loved it! Exciting and well written.… (plus d'informations)
