Bookworm Club (Year 2 & 3) - Tiny Mermaid (Imaginary Writing) by Edenland Centre https://padlet.com/edenlandcentre/ir3ja4dgjl4kbaxt The Tiny Mermaid was swallowed by a large brown cod. In the cod’s belly, she saw the most curious things – bottle tops, chips wrappers, floppy balloon knots … Inside that murky belly, she curled up on a biscuit bag and fell asleep ... Can you predict what happens to the mermaid next? en-us 2021-01-17 07:53:07 UTC 2025-09-29 10:30:16 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f30a.png Justin Tan edenlandcentre https://padlet.com/edenlandcentre/ir3ja4dgjl4kbaxt/wish/1094895621 When the Tiny Mermaid woke up from her sleep, many other fish were in the cod’s tummy too. They were very small and the Tiny Mermaid made friends with them.

It had been five days since Tiny Mermaid was lost. Her friends were looking for her. A plankton said, “Let’s go and find Tiny Mermaid!” 

A plankton heard Tiny Mermaid calling for help from a cod’s tummy. Tiny Mermaid’s friends followed the plankton. When they arrived, they saw the cod swimming towards them. They were eaten and fell deep into its tummy. Inside, they found a lot of fish dancing with the Tiny Mermaid and they were extremely happy.

The tiny mermaid said, “Hi, welcome! Come and join the party. These are my friends!”

The plankton answered, “We are here to save you, Tiny Mermaid. Let's go.”

When they were at the cod’s tongue, the plankton grabbed a bottle cap and hit it, so the cod would open its mouth. They quickly swam out and lived in the great world again.]]> 2021-01-17 07:53:49 UTC https://padlet.com/edenlandcentre/ir3ja4dgjl4kbaxt/wish/1094895621 Liew Ezhen edenlandcentre https://padlet.com/edenlandcentre/ir3ja4dgjl4kbaxt/wish/1094934311 When the Tiny Mermaid woke up, she thought it was still night time because the cod fish’s tummy was very dark and cold. She slept for many hours. But it was already morning! 

One day, Tiny Mermaid decided to do something in return for the cod fish to set herself free. She told the cod fish that if he could let her go, she would pick some shiny pearls from the bottom of the sea. The cod fish’s eyes sparkled, and he agreed. Tiny Mermaid beamed from ear to ear. The cod fish opened his mouth, so that Tiny Mermaid could swim out and go down to the ocean floor to pick the pearls that she promised him. How joyful she was! 

Tiny Mermaid swam out and disappeared. The cod fish thought that she had gone to pick the pearls. But she didn’t! The cod fish waited day by day but no matter how long he waited, Tiny Mermaid did not return with the pearls as promised. Finally, the cod fish knew he had been tricked and he was very cross about it.]]> 2021-01-17 08:21:10 UTC https://padlet.com/edenlandcentre/ir3ja4dgjl4kbaxt/wish/1094934311 Mah Qi Ern edenlandcentre https://padlet.com/edenlandcentre/ir3ja4dgjl4kbaxt/wish/1094983101 The Tiny Mermaid felt really sad and lonely when she woke up from her sleep, because she was so far away from her friends. It was cold, dark and dirty inside the stomach of the cod fish. She could not see and did not know which way to go to escape. She felt very scared.
 
Tiny Mermaid’s ocean friends came to save her. They tried to open the mouth of the cod fish, broke into its stomach and helped her escape. Tiny Mermaid and her friends danced happily together.

When she woke up, she was up by the shore. She had no idea how she ended up there. Tiny Mermaid started swimming. When she reached the bottom of the ocean, it was night time. The next morning, she found her ocean friends. She was very happy and emotional. Tiny mermaid lived happily ever after.]]> 2021-01-17 08:58:36 UTC https://padlet.com/edenlandcentre/ir3ja4dgjl4kbaxt/wish/1094995771 Rhea Balasingram edenlandcentre https://padlet.com/edenlandcentre/ir3ja4dgjl4kbaxt/wish/1095003656 Little Mermaid could not escape from the cod’s tummy as she didn’t know how to. She was very small and tiny and could not push her way out. She lived there from now on as she didn’t know which way to go …]]> 2021-01-17 09:02:53 UTC https://padlet.com/edenlandcentre/ir3ja4dgjl4kbaxt/wish/1095003656 Cayden Lee edenlandcentre https://padlet.com/edenlandcentre/ir3ja4dgjl4kbaxt/wish/1095117588 When the Tiny Mermaid woke up, she realised that she was still in the cod’s stomach.  She kept thinking how to get out.  Finally, she got an idea!
 
She used her fingers to tickle the cod’s stomach. The cod felt itchy.  Then, she used her tail to thump its stomach again. The cod had stomach cramps.  She picked up the plastic bottles one by one and threw towards the top of its stomach.  The cod felt painful.  It opened its mouth and screamed!  At that moment, a lot of water gushed into his stomach.  The Tiny Mermaid quickly swam out.
 
Although she had escaped, Tiny Mermaid dared not to stay there for long.  She swam as fast as she could even though she was tired. She just wanted to go home ...

There was no food anywhere, only lots of plastic. She looked for a way out, but It was hard to see. It was dark inside the cod fish's belly. She was shivering because the water was cold. Then she had an idea. She tickled the codfish's belly. The codfish started to cough and she was thrown out of the cod fish’s belly. The Tiny Mermaid swam away safely.]]> 2021-01-17 12:12:11 UTC https://padlet.com/edenlandcentre/ir3ja4dgjl4kbaxt/wish/1095317302 Jaiakarshan edenlandcentre https://padlet.com/edenlandcentre/ir3ja4dgjl4kbaxt/wish/1095323822 What happened? Tiny Mermaid’s friends heard her cries. They found the cod fish. One of the friends’ opened the cod fish’s mouth and the other friends swam into the cod’s belly. And there was Tiny Mermaid crying in the belly. Tiny Mermaid saw her friends and they planned their escape. Meanwhile, the friend who was holding the cod fish’s mouth was getting tired. The cod fish began to close its mouth. Tiny Mermaid and her friends swam quickly until they escaped!]]> 2021-01-17 12:16:03 UTC https://padlet.com/edenlandcentre/ir3ja4dgjl4kbaxt/wish/1095323822 Jachin Ling edenlandcentre https://padlet.com/edenlandcentre/ir3ja4dgjl4kbaxt/wish/1096374396 When Tiny Mermaid woke up, she was at the bottom of the sea. She had no idea how she ended up there. When she swam up to the shore, she saw the cod that gobbled her up. The cod was no longer moving. She tried to push it back into the ocean, but it didn’t move. After trying for hours, the cod was dead. Poor little cod died because he was suffocated by having too much plastic waste in his throat, stomach and gills. Tiny Mermaid guessed when the cod suffocated, he probably opened his mouth and water went into his stomach and he might have coughed her out …]]> 2021-01-18 00:09:23 UTC https://padlet.com/edenlandcentre/ir3ja4dgjl4kbaxt/wish/1096374396 Lum Kings Soon edenlandcentre https://padlet.com/edenlandcentre/ir3ja4dgjl4kbaxt/wish/1096382604 Tiny Mermaid felt cold and disgusted the moment she woke up. As more and more plastic piled up inside the cod’s tummy, she could not breathe so she tried to escape. She screamed helplessly. Unfortunately, her voice could not be heard. She tickled the cod’s throat so that it will open its big mouth. Eventually, she was able to escape and was saved.]]> 2021-01-18 00:19:15 UTC https://padlet.com/edenlandcentre/ir3ja4dgjl4kbaxt/wish/1096382604 Jonas Seet edenlandcentre https://padlet.com/edenlandcentre/ir3ja4dgjl4kbaxt/wish/1099506234 When Tiny Mermaid woke up, she realised that she was on a beach. She was confused. She then saw the cod fish that swallowed her. There was blood coming out from its body. Tiny Mermaid yelled for help but no one came. Then, she found a roll of toilet paper on the beach. She wrapped the toilet paper around the cod fish to stop the bleeding. She waited for hours. Finally, the cod fish opened its eyes. Its parents came and brought the cod fish home. Before the cod fish left, Tiny Mermaid waved goodbye to the cod fish.]]> 2021-01-19 03:27:08 UTC https://padlet.com/edenlandcentre/ir3ja4dgjl4kbaxt/wish/1099506234
