Catla and the Vikings by Mary Elizabeth Nelson
The long ship turned with a sweep of the oars and drifted toward them. Out of the breeze, the sail flapped like an old shawl. The red stripes were clear against the silt brown of the river. Sunlight glinted off the knobs of metal pounded into each black shield, piled in the bottom of the ship. Leather helmets and leather straps covered the invaders' faces, shading their eyes. One sweep of the oars brought the ship to the beach. In a time of war, small acts of courage can yield big results. In the fall of 1066, a thirteen-year-old Anglo-Saxon girl named Catla watches from afar as Viking invaders burn her village and imprison her family and the other villagers. No one sees her as she flees toward Aigber, the closest village, praying the people there will help. Shaken out of her usual routines, and propelled by fear, she reaches Aigber and helps the villagers come up with a plan that will save both villages from the Nord-devils-and, in the process, change Catla's life forever.| SKU | Nicht verfügbar |
