It is one of the most beautiful fairy tales of Portuguese literature, written by Sophia de Mello Breyner.
This story is part of the childhood imagination of any child. Why? Because the writing Sofia de Melo Breyner enchants already several generations of Portuguese, who read and reread this story written to be told only to her five children and was eventually heard by millions. The girl from the sea, although it is an obligatory reference in the official programs of the national reading plan, never has suffered from this heavily administrative title. It is a book loved by all who encounter him. The word mandatory never applied to this tale, quite the contrary. It is a reading full of charm, magic and filled with wonderful characters that inhabit the seabed. It is the story of a friendship between a boy who lived on land and a girl who lives in the sea. Sophia de Mello Breyner in her book always liked the ocean, because it is "from the edge of the sea / intact where it all began on the first day of me." And we perpetuate her writing by reading this wonderful book for children. Good reading
