Synopsis

Meet Dagfrid, Viking Girl! For fans of How to Train Your Dragon, this early chapter book sets Viking norms on its head with humor and wit.

Many things bother Dagfrid. Her name, for starters. And life as a viking girl isn’t exactly a piece of cake: you have rolled-up braids, like buns, on your ears, you wear dresses that are too long to run with, and you dry fish. In fact, fish is all you eat, even when you’re not a girl. But girls, they can’t even navigate and go explore America.

Well, until now. Because Dagfrid is really sick of dried fish.
