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.

I decided to try something new today for breakfast. I made toast, but instead of putting butter or jam on it, I put a fried egg on it, a little bit of chopped tomato, and some lettuce and kale. The toast with fried egg tasted pretty good, though I wondered if I could’ve added something else to it. I’m glad I tried it out. I also had it with some oatmeal and fruit.

I’ve been working on a couple of other stories lately. I’ve also been reading and listening to other books, like The Hardy Boys by Franklin W. Dixon, The Valley of Fear by Conan Doyle, and a couple of A to Z Mysteries books by Ron Roy. I enjoy mystery stories and I love Sherlock Holmes. The Sherlock books are by far the best mystery books I’ve ever read. The mysteries are unique and I like Watson and Holmes’ friendship. Holmes has a knack for noticing clues that Watson or other detectives overlook, which is one of the reasons he’s such an interesting character. I may write my thoughts on the Valley of Fear in another post once I finish reading it.

Here is a video of me making the toast and fried eggs, along with some photos.
