A beautifully illustrated, magical retelling of one of the most
beloved fairy tales, which no child's library should be without!
The Little Mermaid is curious to see the world above the water, but
it's forbidden. One day, when nobody is is looking, she slips above
the waves and falls in love with a prince. Longing to see him
again, she asks the Sea Witch to help her become human. But, for
Sea Witch's spell to work, the Little Mermaid must make a difficult
choice . . . Will she ever see the prince again? Based on the
original story by Hans Christian Andersen, this exquisite
reimagining of the classic fairy tale, loved by generations, comes
ahead of the highly anticipated Disney live-action movie, The
Little Mermaid.

way, but he has no friends and no one to love him. Rufus seeks the

But why are they so deeply connected? And will each extraordinary

Pulled by a thread through a fog, Mowzl arrives in the human world
from a future time. In his home world Mowzl is a real mouse; here
in the human world he is a toy - but alive, with a heart and
feelings. He is found by Pip and LuLu, who are grown-ups, and LuLu
makes him a woolen pouch in which he can fly. He talks with wild
creatures and is upset to learn that the world is being badly
damaged by what humans are doing. In his home world there are no
humans to be seen and the world, or "wild web", is healthy. Mowzl
needs Pip to write his story to help him remember where he came
from and how to get back, and Pip writes everything that happens.
When Mowzl meets two children called Billy and Larky, they find
that they can understand the wild talk too, but only when they are
with the mouse, because of his magic. They are excited to learn
from creatures about the wild web, and they want to do something to
help. Billy and Larky soon get their friends involved, and they all
listen to the stories that Mowzl tells. Gradually, the mystery of
what happened to Mowzl before the fog is revealed. The Adventures
of Horatio Mowlz is an illustrated children's story that reflects
on the impacts human activity is having on the environment, whilst
taking readers on an adventure they will not forget.
