From Ariel to the current craze for Sirens, mermaids have captivated our imaginations. But what's true and what's fairy tale?

For centuries, mermaids have appeared in the folklore of cultures from around the world, including the Near East, Europe, Asia, and Africa. And Disney made everyone want to dive under the sea with Ariel when the movie The Little Mermaid hit theaters in 1989. But what are mermaid stories based on?

Many myths say these creatures are half human and half fish, while others claim they are simply manatees mistaken for something more magical. Some grant wishes and fall in love, yet others have lured sailors to their doom.

Although we can't say for sure where the tales of these elusive figures first originated, author Sarah Laskow separates the fact from the fiction. This full-color, fully illustrated book tells you all you need to know about the myths, science, and history that surround mermaids.

Great Looking. Funky. Convenient for Hands Free-ness
Size: One Size, Color: Black
I love the modern lines of this purse. And of course, as Hobo always does, it has a fun interior. The circle part is large enough to put your forearm through. So I bought it thinking I'd only have a clutch...or maybe a wristlet at best. But actually, I can pull it up to my elbow while I'm shopping and flipping through things. That is so cool. I've never had this many compliments on a purse. Mind you, it is still small. So if you carry a tote-sized purse, this will seem teeny. I find it super handy while traveling too. It goes inside of my backpack or laptop case. Then you can grab it without schlepping your entire suitcase around. I'm not a purse gal, so this is my upsizing from being a wallet-only person. Being able to also have keys and a pen and some lip gloss in there is a great bonus over wallet-only days.

Coach Quality Never Fails
Size: One Size, Color: Black 1, Size: One Size, Color: Black 1
I'm not sure why there are any reviews complaining of silver hardware or size as that information is clearly listed in the product descriptions. One also needs to order directly from Coach and select the gift option to get the gift box and dust bag, which has always been the case. This Tabby is the perfect size to hold the contents of your wallet, your phone, and your keys. It's a clutch bag. The bag I received has silver hardware and full grain leather as advertised. It's a beautiful, quality bag and the difference between this and a fake is clear; the material feels durable and soft at the same time. The bag smells like leather. Ultimately, as I read and did my research, I'm very pleased with my purchase. I've dressed it up with a cheaper, smaller strap as I'm using this as an oversized wristlet at the moment; but I got everything I paid for.
