Once, she discovered a curious figurine that looked a bit like her, but for two cloth sticks where its tail should be.

Q

As she emerged close to shore, she saw a pearly disc hanging in the sky that was surely one of the most beautiful things sh’d ever seen.

A

The Little Mermaid

30
Q

She watched tiny turtles scurrying in the sand and birds flying overhead.

A

The Little Mermaid

31
Q

This is where I want to be, she thought.

A

The Little Mermaid

32
Q

Taking a deep breath, she drank the potion down.

A

The Little Mermaid

33
Q

At last she felt fine sand agains her skin and winced as a sharp shell cut into her foot.

A

The Little Mermaid

34
Q

She was just starting to stand on wobbly legs when she heard a girl’s voice.

A

The Little Mermaid

35
Q

The girl reached with a steadying hand.

A

The Little Mermaid

36
Q

Instead she smiled back, shivering as the breeze whipped through the seaweed clinging to her body.

A

The Little Mermaid

37
Q

Here you can borrow this to keep warm.

A

The Little Mermaid

38
Q

Do you want to play?

A

The Little Mermaid

39
Q

I’m chasing butterflies today!

A

The Little Mermaid

40
Q

Together the girls spent the day chasing insects and building sandcastles.

A

The little mermaid

41
Q

They did both, until the sun started to lower in the sky.

A

The Little Mermaid

42
Q

They both had a love of creativity and adventure.

A

The Little Mermaid

43
Q

You’re the best friend I’ve ever had.

A

The Little Mermaid

44
Q

Where did you come from?

A

The Little Mermaid

45
Q

Why can’t you speak?

A

The Little Mermaid

46
Q

Then she picked up a stick and began to sketch a story in the sand:

A

The Little Mermaid

47
Q

I have something for you, too.

A

The Little Mermaid

48
Q

It was a caterpillar.

A

The Little Mermaid

49
Q

But it is growing wings, and very soon it will fly over land and sea.

A

The Little Mermaid

50
Q

It’s like magic!

A

The Little Mermaid

51
Q

It reminds me of you.

A

The Little Mermaid

52
Q

How extraordinary.

A

The Little Mermaid

53
Q

An explorer. Like me.

A

The Little Mermaid

54
Q

You should have never given up your voice…for anything.

A

The Little Mermaid

55
Q

She put it wistfully to her ear, and to her surprise, a distant echo of her own voice resonated from inside.

A

The Little Mermaid

56
Q

But now the sound was witchy, wild, and frightening.

A

The Little Mermaid

57
Q

Then a different sound called to her from within the shell.

A

The Little Mermaid

58
Q

Your family is in trouble!

A

The Little Mermaid

59
Q

Oh, what have I done?

A

The Little Mermaid

60
Q

She knew that to return would mean she would never walk on land again and would perhaps lose her only friend.

A

The Little Mermaid

61
Q

I understand you must leave

A

The Little Mermaid

62
Q

But I’ll always be your friend.

A

The Little Mermaid

63
Q

Her sisters cried out to her.

A

The Little Mermaid

64
Q

Father’s strength is useless against this dark power!

A

The Little Mermaid

65
Q

In the next moment her guardian, the turtle, snapped the necklace free with his jaws.

A

The little mermaid

66
Q

She shouted with a strength she never knew she had: No!

A

The Little Mermaid

67
Q

Tumbling and writhing, it drifted down, down, down

A

The Little Mermaid

68
Q

The spell was broken.

A

The Little Mermaid

69
Q

She opened her mouth, and such a beautiful song came out that the coral sprang back to life and the sea snakes slithered far away.

A

The Little Mermaid

70
Q

Her friend was safe.

A

The Little Mermaid

71
Q

It soared over the sea with its message of change and hope.
