BR-09 Stories of Mermaids


I read “Stories of Mermaid”. This story is very famous and interesting. But they may don’t know all stories of it. There are three stories.
One of the stories, Harmony lived with her mother at the very bottom of the ocean. They were so poor they could only afford a tiny cave. This was cramped, dark and very cold. It froze their fins and took the shine off their scales. Harmony tried to keep up their sprits by singing beautiful songs. Her voice was so enchanting that passing fish had to stop and listen. One day, her mother woke up shivering all over. She was covered in blue spots and her tongue had turned purple. Harmony rushed to find Dr. Finley. The Doctor said “he is very sick”. And he told Harmony that there are good medicines of seaweed. She found out the seaweed, but there was ghost of pirate. She was taken by the ghost. But one day, she was singing songs and the ghost opens her. She could give the seaweed and chest to mother. Polkadot weed floated out, along with handfuls of coins. Harmony’ s mother was cures and they moved into a warm and cosy now cave.
It is good that she have good voice. I want to be rich like them. ^^
