Description
Cinderlad and the Sea Dragon is a bold retelling of an old Scottish folk tale from the Orkney Islands. Illustrated in a striking graphic novel style, the book brings a sharp contemporary energy to this classic narrative. Echoing the Cinderella tradition, Cinderlad – the seventh son, tasked with tending the peat fire and doing the chores – prefers to sit by the hearth making up heroic stories.
When a monstrous Sea Dragon rises from the deep and threatens the land, one of his imagined adventures suddenly becomes real. Cinderlad must step forward, confront the creature, and discover the hero he was always meant to be.
