I've seen their art for the things they do with Harry Potter and their Instagram, so when they posted that the latest in this series was Alice in Wonderland, I sought out what else was available. I didn't imagine they'd be on desertcart and didn't imagine they'd be cheap, but I got this for a little over $16. This is SO inexpensive and I would've paid more for it (but since I didn't, I bought two - also got Beauty and the Beast around $12). The whole book is filled with such magically amazing art to go along with the stories and it's entirely throughout. You hardly ever see two pages in a row without something. The interactive elements are fun...I'm not giving this to a child, but they're still whimsical, cute and appreciated. It's stuff like fold out maps, "doors" that you open with mirrors or other images inside. This also has other stories including the Princess and the Pea, the Snow Queen, The Nightingale and a couple of others. The pages themselves it's printed on are nice, smooth and thick. I just can't say enough good things about this book (or the series of them) and would recommend to anyone. They also have The Little Mermaid, Peter Pan, Alice in Wonderland, The Jungle Book and...I think that's it. I'm not sure if they are doing more or if Alice completes them...but I hope there are many more still to come. Alice just came out so it's higher, I think about $30, but ANY of these would be worth every penny. Review: A beautiful book - It is a beautiful book. I will enjoy reading it to my grandchildren. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #40,549 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #242 in Short Stories Anthologies #472 in Folklore (Books) #1,302 in Classic Literature & Fiction | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (1,079) | | Dimensions | 6.75 x 1.25 x 9.75 inches | | Edition | Illustrated | | Grade level | Preschool - 3 | | ISBN-10 | 0062692593 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0062692597 | | Item Weight | 10.4 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 240 pages | | Publication date | March 13, 2018 | | Publisher | Harper | | Reading age | 8 - 12 years | ## Images ![The Little Mermaid - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/910jxXoirMS.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ MAGICAL *by H***Y on July 19, 2019* I'm buying every single one of these MinaLima illustrated editions because they are BEAUTIFUL.

I will enjoy reading it to my grandchildren. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ the little Mermaid & other tales *by M***J on August 20, 2023* This book is awesome! Sturdy nice hardcover, very nice illustrations. Really cool interactive pop ups in the stories. I love that it's the original story of the little Mermaid and not the disney tale everyone knows. And all the other fairy tales in it are amazing as well. Definitely worth the money and my youngest daughter is totally ecstatic to read all the original tales and everything. Definitely happy to add it to our book collection, and can't wait to get a few more of these style books with the other stories out of the this collection. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/59261805-the-little-mermaid](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/59261805-the-little-mermaid) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-05-17*
