Description
The Stone Giant By Anna Höglund A young girl in a red dress waits alone for her father's return. As the days pass, she says good night to herself every evening, and when the last light fades, she sets out to find him. Armed with a mirror and a knife, she embarks on a perilous journey. This contemporary fairytale is based on a classic Swedish story by Elsa Beskow, which has been enjoyed by generations of children in Sweden for over 100 years. The girl's bravery and determination ultimately lead her to save her father from the giant who holds him captive with his gaze. Hardcover, 44 pages.
