Synopsis
A direct-to-video sequel to Disney's 1989 classic. Set several years after "The Little Mermaid," Ariel and Prince Eric are happily married with a daughter, Melody. In order to protect Melody from the Sea Witch, Morgana, they have not told her about her mermaid heritage. Melody is curious and ventures into the sea, where she meets new friends.
