| Summary | "The Iceberg Express" by David Cory is a children's fantasy tale written in the early 20th century. This whimsical narrative centers around a young girl named Mary Louise, who embarks on a magical journey into underwater realms filled with mermaids, fantastical creatures, and enchanted landscapes. The story combines elements of adventure and imagination, providing a vivid exploration of Mary Louise’s adventures after she meets a mermaid and travels via the Iceberg Express, a train made from ice that journeys through the sea. In the story, Mary Louise encounters a variety of characters, including a friendly mermaid, King Seaphus, and a polar bear porter. The narrative unfolds as Mary Louise is transformed into a mermaid herself, propelling her into numerous enchanting locations such as the Coral Palace. As she travels, she experiences the wonders of the underwater world, attends a royal banquet, engages with mystical beings, and even helps break a spell on a cursed prince. Through her adventures, themes of friendship, curiosity, and the joy of exploration are emphasized, culminating in her eventual return to her mother with new tales to tell.
