Thoughts on The Curse of the Sea Witches: A Little Mermaid Graphic Novel

I’ve been in the mood for fantasy stories and mermaids lately, so I was happy to get The Curse of the Sea Witches: A Little Mermaid Graphic Novel . It is written by Rhonda Cleary, and the artwork is done by Valentina Brancati, Andrea Greppi, Lorenzo Fornaciari, and Marco Leoni. The Little Mermaid is one of my favorite fairytales, so I was eager to see what adventure was in store for Ariel in this graphic novel. In the graphic novel, Princess Ariel joins Prince Eric to Greenland, where the Royal Trading Company is working with the locals to build a port for trade.

Jakob Sees the Moon


This is another short story I wrote inspired partially by these photos I took of the moon along with some drawings I have done in the past.



Jakob used his camera to take photos of the pale moon and observed it in curiosity. Threw the glass window he could see that this moon was a white, light grey color with darker grey splotches and craters on it. It was also kind of smaller than he had expected.

“What do you think?” His dad asked.
“It’s not blue, and its surface has craters on it, but it’s nice and unique in its own way,” Jakob replied. "And I kinda like the color." 
His dad looked at the moon and nodded in agreement. “Ready to fly back home?”
“Yeah.”
His dad powered up the engine of the spaceship.
“Dad, when do you think we’ll visit Earth?”
“Probably when you 14, son.”
As the spaceship flew away from Earth’s moon, Jakob watched the Earth, its moon, and its sun grow smaller and smaller until they were out of sight. A half-hour later, he could see his home planet again, the rainbow planet Zangar along with its blue moon Indigo. He smiled. It was good to be back. Though he looked forward to going to Earth one day, he could wait. His home was more than enough for now.
