A review by gabenevilela
La Sirenita by Hans Christian Andersen

5.0

This book is so adorable. The illustrations in watercolour are beautiful.
The story is close to Disney's Little Mermaid story, with little modifications. Her sisters are sweeter, she has a grandma and the witch's spell is different, but it's still amazing. It's not the real story; but it's ok. I'm fine with not reading Eric as a arsehole or she having her tongue cut, so I'll keep the kids' version of it in my mind.
If you are not completely fluent in Spanish, that's a great start, since it's a kids book.
My mom brought me from her trip to Peru, because I fell in love with the cover. I'm a judger, sorry.
Anyway, five stars because I've always loved The Little Mermaid (I still believe I'll turn into one), and five stars to the illustrator: Francesca Rossi! Lovely work!
