SYNOPSIS FROM GOODREADS:
Sigurd, a Viking boy, cannot see the value of learning to read and write. All he can think of is adventure. But then he has an adventure that he cannot help but tell. And to do that, he decides, he must learn to write. A fine story for young readers.
MY REVIEW:
I read this book aloud to my daughters.
We enjoyed this book. We have read other Bulla books, and we have not been disappointed yet.
This is a great historical fiction novel to read while studying the Vikings. Sigurd leaves his family behind to sail on a journey to Vineland (what the Vikings called North America).
This book has it all: friendship, treachery, danger, and survival. Tied all together, it is a great adventure!
MY RATING: 4 stars!
