This accessible text brings together myths from cultures all over the world and highlights the interesting stories of P. T. Barnum's Feejee Mermaid of the 1800s as well as the original "Little Mermaid" fairytale. Readers will explore possible scientific explanations for the many sightings and consider what they believe. Bright images, a playful design, and graphic elements will keep all levels of readers motivated"-- Provided by publisher. |
