A copy of the text can be found here - https://gutenberg.ca/ebooks/andersen-mermaid/andersen-mermaid-00-h.html A copy of the movie can be found on Disney Plus. This is for those students who have access to the video in some capacity.

We will refer to the text multiple times throughout the class. The text can be found here - https://gutenberg.ca/ebooks/andersen-mermaid/andersen-mermaid-00-h.html
