Scuttle takes center stage in this book, which works kinda like a one-man (one-bird) monologue, as he shows off to the reader his collection of human things and their "function".

Ariel's still learning about life on land, and in this sweet little story she and Eric get to share some aboveworld treasures together, namely fireflies and stars. Thank you to Grace for sharing these images!

This board book features party scenes for various princesses, and Ariel gets one in a sunken pirate ship.

This comic is about young Ariel as the mermaid who cried wolf. In it, Ariel has a tendency of telling her sisters stories of adventures she's supposedly been on that they can no longer believe her, which proves a problem when she needs to convince them that she's found a very real sea wolf in a cave. This book uses the princesses' youth as depicted in Ariel's Beginning, with the shared bedroom, along with Ariel being uncertain and not yet knowing actual adventure.

Ariel is excited to learn how to dance with the tambourine, but isn't confident on her legs.

Triton's daughters are given special pearls as a mark of their coming-of-age and taking of new responsibilities, and Ariel needs to decide what her role she'd like to have. The one she decides on is afitting one! I've included two versions of this story here, the first is from "Jewel Collection" and the second is from "Dragons, Mermaids, Fairies, and More".

Ursula can't stand watching other merfolk have a good time in the Coral Festival, so she ventures out to sabotage the festivities. This story was included in the 5-Minute Disney Villains Stories collection.
