BLURB:
She's
nasty, she's gross, and she's anything but little. All Aria the mermaid
princess wants is to stuff her face full of food, but what happens when her
dad, the king, tries to stop her? The answer: laughs beyond belief! Watch as
Aria deals with her mean dad, a chubby-chasing prince, a harpoon wielding sea
captain, and, in a grand final battle, the monstrous water witch herself.
Aria will bite, belch, and fart her
way into your heart in this second installment of the Funny Stories for Kids
series, brought to you by the famed Dweezel and Pallie.

EXCERPT:
Look
at my stash, see all the treats?
See
all the cupcakes and pickled pigs feet?
You
can see I'm a mermaid
who
wants to eat... everything!
I
eat every second I'm waking
I'm
so fat that I'm breaking the floor
Double
chins?
I
got twenty!
But
so what?
I
don't care!
I
want more!
I
need to eat what the humans eat
I'd
like to eat when the food is still dry
I
want to eat some fresh...
Uggh...
beef!
Down
in the brine the food tastes so bad,
when
all you're allowed is some seaweed to live by,
None
of that stuff that's so salty and...
mmm
mmm mmm... Sweet!
What
do I care
if
all the laws
say
we have to stay hidden?
And
what do I care
if
eating of meat
is
strictly forbidden?
I'm
addicted to food
but
it tastes so good
so
I don't give a single crum about rules;
want
more yummies, dipped in honey,
no
one to intrude.
Off
by the ships
I
get just get what drips
off
of the sides, or they throw in barrels.
No
primo stuff like
fresh
dip and…
uggh...
chips!
I
want to munch,
I
want to brunch,
I
want to eat the thing they call lunch!
Sweets
and the meats...
I
need to eat
all
of that food.
