Frozen Miracle

More about the book

"I was fishing at night in the frozen seas. And in the darkness I saw something strange. Something wonderful. And what I found will move the earth and shake the heavens. What I found is the beginning of myth and the end of stories. This is something that you - all of you - will want to see." Set two hundred years ago in a Canadian fishing village, the narrative unfolds when the villagers discover two frozen mermaids. The Viking Kite series, crafted by English-Swedish authors Andy Coombs and Sarah Scho, features over 40 published works and has sold a million copies in Sweden. Known as top educational authors in Scandinavia, they reside near Stockholm with their dog, Nimly. Their stories reflect Scandinavia's progressive values on gender, race, identity, and inclusivity, and are now accessible worldwide as of Spring 2021, with translations by Inger Strömsten. Targeting middle-grade and young adult readers, the 23 stories traverse themes from alien encounters to ancient tribes, addressing issues like bullying, friendship, personal growth, and identity. The series is divided into three categories: Strange Life, exploring social dynamics; Different Minds, delving into empathy and imagination; and Shadow Side, which tackles darker themes such as neglect, inner turmoil, and loss, featuring unexpected monsters and ghosts.
