Ariel's Journal of Adventures

Ariel's Journal of Adventures is a thick, weatherproof book bound in deep crimson leather, its cover sealed with mother-of-pearl, polished coral, and a clasp shaped like a silver fish. The pages are soft as kelp but never wet, even when submerged. Ink shifts from royal blue to turquoise depending on the surrounding light, and tiny illustrations move when viewed from the corner of the eye. The journal contains firsthand accounts of life beneath the sea, voyages upon the surface, Prince Eric's coastal kingdom, Melody's childhood, and Ariel's efforts to reconnect the scattered ruins and surviving traditions of Atlantis.
