Summary | When a poor fisherman chooses Death to be godfather to his son, he's sure he's made a good choice -- for surely there's no man more honest than Death? At the christening, Death gives the fisherman a gift that seems at first to be the key to the family's fortune, but when greed overcomes the fisherman, he learns that nobody can truly cheat Death. From author Sally Nichcolls and illustrated by Júlia Sardà comes a soul-stirring retelling of a tale by the Brothers Grimm, which will spellbound and thrill in equal measure. |
