More than just a humongous splash of fun, each SeaTale conveys the importance of things in life such as friendship, family, hope and telling the truth, making it a perfect addition to any children's library.
Thumbelina
Thumbelina is a tiny penguin, as a result of a wish by her parents for a child of their own. Much of Thumbelina's happiness was stolen from her when a unscrupulous selfish sea turtle kidnapped her from her dwelling. This sets her on a series of adventures where she learns a great deal about things in life, and later meets a handsome prince, who is her own size.
Snow White
In her effort to be "fairest in the land," a jealous and evil queen attempts to be rid of her beautiful stepdaughter, Snow White, who takes refuge in the seaforest cottage of the seven hermit crabs.
The Happy Sea Prince
The beautiful gilded statue of the happy prince overlooks the sunken seatown, but the poverty and misery he sees make him very sad. He asks a whale to gradually pluck the jewels and gold from him to aid those who are suffering.
The Ugly Duckling
The Ugly Duckling tells the tale of a duckling, abandoned and deserted because he was different. Despite trying to make friends, the ugly duckling is laughed at and rejected by just about everyone he meets. Then one day the ugly duckling comes across a number of beautiful razorbills swimming in the ocean. It is here that he discovers his real identity, seeing his own reflection in the water. He had grown into a beautiful razorbill too, and had never been an ugly duckling after all.
The Selfish Giant
The Selfish Giant focuses on a garden surrounding a castle occupied by a giant octopus. While the giant octopus is off visiting his friend the sea ogre, young fish play in the garden; when he returns, he chases them away and builds a high wall around the garden to keep out all trespassers. Winter comes to call, and a perpetual bleak chill settles on the garden, and the giant octopus grows increasingly lonely, until the young fish find their way back in, and break the spell that keeps spring out. The giant octopus opens his heart to them, and from them (one in particular) learns of the mysterious power of love.
