Long ago, in Dutch Fairy Land, there lived a young mermaid who was very proud of her good looks. She was one of a family of mere or lake folks dwelling not far from the sea.

No frogs, toads or eels were allowed near, but in the work of daily housecleaning, the storks and the mermaids were great friends.
