Sirenas de leyenda

Who are the mermaids? What sensations do these marine beings evoke in us, half woman, half fish? From time immemorial and in all parts of the world, these creatures have never ceased to inspire legends. In this beautiful book illustrated by Laura Pérez, we tell you about her incredible destiny, her search for knowledge, love, justice ..., and her exciting adventures. We dive with them to the bottom of the sea and some legendary rivers, and we accompany Lorelei, the jilted and fearsome mermaid of the Rhine, the enchanting and powerful Mami Wata (of the voodoo cult), the beautiful and vain Sedna (of the Inuit mythology), the amazing and brave Iara (Brazil) or the delicious -and terrible- Ningyo (Japan). Without leaving aside some of the most famous mermaids in history: the half-birds that enchanted Ulysses with his song and the original version of the little mermaid in love that we met thanks to the story by Hans Christian Andersen. With a beautiful, enveloping, poetic style, and illustrations full of magic, its authors tell us the stories of these ten legendary mermaids.
