The Boy Who Held Back the Sea
$12.49
Product Description
Jan had never done anything more heroic than shout for the guard because he’d imagined he’d seen a sea serpent. But when Jan discovered water trickling through a desolate stretch of the dike that protected his low-lying village, he knew he had to act fast.
“Locker’s depiction of nature overpowering humanity is especially significant to the story and to the Dutch people who have spent centuries battling the sea.”–School Library Journal
