What if Ariel had never defeated Ursula? It's been five years since the infamous sea witch defeated the little mermaid... and took King Triton's life in the process. Ariel is now the voiceless queen of Atlantica, while Ursula runs Prince Eric's kingdom on land. But when Ariel discovers that her father might still be alive, she finds herself returning to a world--and a prince--she never imagined she would see again.

Ariel is fascinated with life on land. On one of her visits above the surface, she meets a human prince and falls in love. Determined to be with her true love, she makes a risky deal with an evil sea witch and trades her voice for legs. Ariel embarks on the adventure of a lifetime, but soon finds that the fate of her father's kingdom is in her hands. This storybook includes beautiful, full-color art in the style of the beloved film, The Little Mermaid.

And that business about the 'evil' Queen giving Snow White a poisoned apple? Well, per the Queen herself, she was actually a health nut who was only concerned that her stepdaughter wasn't getting the proper nutrition!
