TEATIME with L. Frank Baum concludes today on Point Loring Beach (Nowhereville) with Corwyn Allen, Rik Merlin, Kayden Connell, Gloriana Maertens, and Caledonia Skytower, live on stream.TODAY: adventures from Baum's underwater fantasy The Sea
Fairies.
Mayre Griffiths, nicknamed Trot, is a little girl who
lives on the coast of southern California.
Her father is the captain of a sailing schooner, and her constant companion
is Cap'n Bill Weedles, a retired sailor with a wooden leg. (Cap'n
Bill had been Trot's father's skipper, and Charlie Griffiths had been his mate,
before the accident that took the older man's leg.) Trot and Cap'n Bill spend
many of their days roaming the beaches near home, or rowing and sailing along
the coast. One day, Trot wishes that she could see a mermaid; her wish is
overheard, and granted the next day. The mermaids explain to Trot, and the
distressed Cap'n Bill, that they are benevolent fairies; when they offer Trot a
chance to pay a visit to their land in mermaid form, Trot is enthusiastic, and
Bill is too loyal to let her go off without him.
So begins their sojourn among the sea fairies.
