About this audiobook
Nelly is a little girl who loves the water so much that when she is kept out of the sea with a cold, she sulks on the rocks and wishes she were a mermaid. The King of the Gulls overhears and grants her wish. Soon she is swimming with two mermaids, Goldfin and Silver-tail, and learning the ways of the sea.
Louisa May Alcott's "Mermaids" is one of the fairy stories in her collection Lulu's Library. It is read by Tara-Louise Kaye. The sea is fun at first, but Nelly begins to miss her mother and the green dry land, and finds that getting back may not be easy.
A gentle story about being careful what you wish for.
