About this listen

A fantastic mermaid adventure, perfect for listening to at home, in the car, at bedtime – or any time at all!

Tempted by the promise of fame and fortune, the Singing Mermaid joins a circus. The crowds love her, but the poor mermaid is kept in a tank by the wicked circus owner Sam Sly, and she soon longs to return to the freedom of her ocean home.
