A retelling of the Hans Christian Andersen story for young readers, prepared by Priyangwada Perera for M. D. Gunasena's series of illustrated fairy tales. The text is in English and the book is illustrated throughout.
The series was put together on a simple principle: that the old fairy tales continue to find an audience with each new set of children, and that they are worth retelling in fresh, readable language rather than left in their older forms. This volume takes The Little Mermaid as its subject. It is intended for children, and the publisher offers the series as a gift for a young reader.
M. D. Gunasena & Co. is an established Colombo publishing house with a long presence in Sri Lankan school and children's publishing. For readers abroad with a connection to Sri Lanka, or for anyone assembling a shelf of children's books published on the island, this is a familiar story in a locally made edition.
