Review of The Little Mermaid by Hans Christian Andersen
Review of The Little Mermaid by Hans Christian Andersen
Review of The Little Mermaid by Hans Christian Andersen I’m sure you are familiar enough with the Disney version of The Little Mermaid, and at least suspect that the original story doesn’t match the screen version. This is certainly the case here, as I explore more and more of the original versions of fairy tales I wonder how we switched gears and grew up with a childhood of loving these tales,…

Flight of Dreams by Ariel Lawhon
Flight of Dreams by Ariel Lawhon
Review of Flight of Dreams by Ariel Lawhon Mrs. Lawhon does a spectacular job detailing the possible last three days on the ill-fated flight of the Hindenburg. All that is certainly known about the historical flight doomed on May 6, 1937 is that a fire broke out. The exact cause of this fire is still an unknown mystery that is filled with many theories, running the gambit from sabotage to…

The Story of the Treasure Seekers by E. Nesbit
Review of The Story of the Treasure Seekers by E. Nesbit I love Nesbit’s stories, they are such fun. This is the start of the Bastable children’s adventures. In the forward information about Mrs. Nesbit it included a description of her that created a funny image in my mind of a young woman hopping over a fence slinging a corset bag full of smoking goods. She became the modern woman of her time,…

Now if I could only figure out how to read while sleeping,…
