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. But when Ariel discovers that the construction is disturbing the Arctic mermaids that live there, and that a conflict between the Arctic mermaids and the humans is brewing, she becomes determined to convince the mermaids and humans to work together to come up with a solution to this issue. One thing I will say is that I love the art style, and the artwork is beautiful. I also like how the graphic novel depicts Ariel’s adventur...

Spiders' Pest Control



When the flies land on your hamburger

Or take a sip from your sprite,

When they buzz around your head annoying you,

And you become filled with spite,


When you’re tired of bringing out the fly swatters

And tired of throwing away a good meal,

It’s time to call the pest control.

Spider’s Pest Control has an excellent deal.


The spiders love their job as pest control

There is no fine or fee.

Their reward is eating flies for lunch,

And that’s why their work is free.


All they require is a bit of food,

A little bit of bait, 

To lure the flies to their webs,

Then all they must do is wait.


The fly who comes to land on the spoil 

Ends up caught in their beautiful web.

The spider rushes in for the kill

The fly is silk wrapped and dead.


The spiders will take their webbing,

And then they will take their leave.

Unless you want them to stay of course.

So long as spiders aren’t your pet peeve.


Just take care not to squash the spiders out of fright;

Dead spiders can’t make dead flies.

Pay them mind so they can work

To keep the pests off your ketchup and fries.


Once the spiders kill all the flies 

The annoying buzzing will cease.

So watch them do all the dirty work,

And enjoy your meal in peace.
