She roamed the ocean swimming and looking beautiful.
But then pirates caught her
and burned her up
and ate her for dinner.
She was unfortunately delicious.

Somehow I don't see Disney picking this one up!
~Jenny~
It's hard being beautiful!
It's a classic fairy tale, one we've all heard before :) hee hee. She's funny, that 5-year old.
Ha! That's awesome ;)
There are so, so many things in this world that fit in the category of "unfortunately delicious"
oh, my. oodles of creative thinking behind that story.
haha!
kids-gotta love em'.
it's great that you are recording the narration to their drawings.

What a hilarious story! Kids can come up with some seriously awesome stories. I especially love the fire sitting on top of the ocean water.
Thanks for sharing!

This is a hilarious story.
i love it!
why is this the most wonderful story i've ever heard??? perhaps the 5 year old author, or the 5 year old illustrations.
it truly IS unfortunately delicious!
that should be published. definitely not by disney...but is SHOULD be published.

Too sweet.
she's my five-year old hero ;-)
Forget JK Rowling and Stephenie Meyer I am your 5 year old's number one fan!!! Hopefully someday I can have an imagination like hers!!!!
That's fantastic! "Unfortunately delicious", haha!
oh dear.....
: )
Ha ha! This is so like my 4 year old's stories, highly affected by her 7 year old brother! Always scary and tragic!
Oh, what a horrible way to die - being burned up and eaten for dinner...BRILLIANT story and gorgeous drawings.
Lucky child to be around grownups who listen to and look carefully at great stories. :0)
That. is. HILARIOUS. Seriously.
My goodness! What have you been reading to that child! I do like the way she swans around the sea being beautiful.
Brilliant! Did she really say "unfortunately delicious"?
Um, so am I a bad person if I admit that I laughed my way through that enchanting tale? Because, uh, I did. And the ending - oh the ending! It was a definite LOL!
What were the pirates to do if she was "unfortunately delicious?" I have yet to pass up anything that fit into that category. The other mermaids had better watch out.
Lynne, your kids are hilarious.
oh the carnage!
I love the fire in the water. Too funny! Great story!
I love it. It has instantly become one of my all time favorite stories.
what do you think that movie would be rated? I personally love how she makes the "mom things" smaller than the belly button.
Keep it forever!!!!
♥Jen
My five year old keep praying that she can turn in to a Mermaid. Though not one who gets burned up!
Love it!
Welcome to the real world, where the princess doesn't always come out on top.
You probably already know this but it's more similar to the original little mermaid story than the disney version.
I always like the unhappy ending one better myself.
My, that was so delightfully told and illustrated! I am so enchanted by this tale! Your little five year old will be famous throughout blogland!
~Emily
This is hilarious! I love it.
I love it. It is so Grimm's Fairytales. Truly a classic.
Ha, so creative!!
:)
Unfortunately delicious. Irony, humor, and tragedy. The perfect tale.
