A soul-stirring reimagined Grimm tale by award-winning author Sally Nicholls and hauntingly illustrated by Júlia Sardà that will spellbind and thrill readers of all ages. When a poor fisherman chooses Death to be godfather to his son, he’s certain 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...

An unsettling folk tale with stunning illustrations another corker from Andersen Press.
The ART! AAAAAA
Fantastic style, reads like a classic fairy tale, and is really just creative and engaging~
A beautiful book! I believe this is a re-telling of an old Grimm's Fairytale, and I'm pleased with how it was brought back to life. The illustrations are gorgeous and the story chilling!
