From the author of Lost Boy comes a beautiful historical fairy tale about a mermaid who leaves the sea, only to become the star attraction of history's greatest showman.

Once there was a mermaid called Amelia who could never be content in the sea, a mermaid who longed to know all the world and all its wonders, and so she came to live on land.

Once there was a man called P. T. Barnum, a man who longed to make his fortune by selling the wondrous and miraculous, and there is nothing more miraculous than a real mermaid.

Amelia agrees to play the mermaid for Barnum and walk among men in their world, believing she can leave anytime she likes. But Barnum has never given up a money-making scheme in his life, and he's determined to hold on to his mermaid.

I loved Lost Boys, Alice, Red Queen all of these audio books kept me wanting to listen to stories from Christina Henry. (Even with the Red Queen that ended so so) This is a easy listening story, too easy and a little boring at times. This story takes liberties from history which is something I like about Henry's story telling, she reinvents . But there is no real back story and the story is missing so many opportunities to be be imaginative.

not my favorite

I really enjoyed the beginning of the story. It made me wish they had spent more time in that Northeast fishing village. History was sprinkled in to make this feel less of a fantasy novel, and added more emotion to the storyline.

Good story, good narration
