A timeless classic heads under the sea...
A retelling of Louisa May Alcott's classic, Little Women: Mermaid Edition takes the story of Jo, Meg, Beth and Amy, and spins it into a fantastical story of merfolk under the sea. Follow the young mergirls as they grow up in a world of talking walruses, seahorse rides, and the mysterious merboy next door.
Will the four mermaid sisters find everything they aspire to in the Deep Ocean? Or will poverty and shabby shell corsets keep them from their dreams?
True to the beloved classic, the Mermaid Edition tackles complex themes of growing up, social pressure, falling in love for the first time, and embracing sisterly love.
Complete with original illustrations, this retelling is perfect for longtime lovers of Little Women and new readers alike. It's a thoughtful gift idea for mermaid enthusiasts and Louisa May Alcott fans ages 11 and up.
Praise for Little Women: Mermaid Edition:
This is a fresh retelling of the same classic story, but with everything flipped into all things mermaid! It still keeps all the characters' personalities and stories the same, and does not change the lessons taught. I highly recommend it!
