Book Description

Publication Date: 1989

From Back Cover: One of the first great English poems retold for children in stong, rhythmical prose of a young man who travelled far across the sea to fight two terrifying monsters - one who could rip a man apart and drink his blood, the other who lived like a sea-wolf at the bottom of a dark, blood-stained lake. His name was Beowulf and his stroy was written down in Anglo-Saxon in the eighth Century. The book is beautifully illustrated by Charles Keeping.
