When I heard that the original little mermaid was sort of a scary story, I was expecting something a lot worse than what the book ended up being. It didn't go too much into the graphic details of the situation she was in too much. Then again this is a children's fairytale and not a fairytale written for horror fans. I was a little surprised that none of the characters had names and that she had five sisters instead of six.. I guess Disney did take some creative liberties besides giving her a happy ending.
As soon as I got audible again, I had to put this in my library. I was desperate to listen to this version specifically. Not only was it the original story behind my favorite Disney princess but one of my favorite singers was reading the book? Absolutely yes I'm going to listen to it. Leigh's voice is so calming, I could listen to her for hours. What I love with this version is the fourth wall breaks. It really made it feel like a cautionary tale, with Ariel or the nameless little mermaid as she's called in this warns not to make the same mistakes she did

Poor little mermaid
I love the original version of The Little Mermaid! This version teaches sacrificing for those we love, which is a much better lesson than change yourself to gain the affection of someone. Mr. Andersen is a master of his craft and I will his work forever!

I knew going in that this was written by a dude pining for a straight man but it is really funny how obvious that is. I feel like we've all known an oblivious douchebag like the prince before, ha ha.
