After saving a prince from drowning, a mermaid princess embraces a
life of extreme self-sacrifice to win his love and gain an immortal
soul.
Over a century after its first publication, Hans Christian
Andersen's "The Little Mermaid" persists as one of the world's most
enduring works of fantasy for children.
This edition combines the world-famous translation of H.B. Paull
with two sets of classic illustrations, the engravings of Vilhelm
Pedersen from the original Danish edition and Helen Stratton's
illustrations from the first English edition of "The Fairy Tales of
Hans Christian Andersen." Both sets provide a beautiful and
dramatic visual compliment to this haunting and inexpressibly
moving tale of love.
Also included are notes with pronunciations and definitions of
some words that may be unfamiliar to grade school readers.
