About this product
Product Information
From the award-winning and renowned illustrator Thomas Locker, beautiful oil-painted illustrations pair with this wonderful retelling of the traditional Dutch folktale. Jan had never done anything more heroic than shout for the guard because he'd imagined he'd seen a sea serpent. But when Jan discovered water trickling through a desolate stretch of the dike that protected his low-lying village, he knew he had to act fast. "Visually stunning."-- Publishers Weekly "Locker's depiction of nature overpowering humanity is especially significant to the story and to the Dutch people who have spent centuries battling the sea."-- School Library Journal

Fast service! Nice new item, but sadly was NOT packaged well for shipping.
This new book got slightly creased and wrinkled during the shipping process.
If this was a gift for someone … I wouldn’t be able to give it. But … it’s for my collection of books for grandkids to read when they visit. - For future reference,
a thin piece of cardboard on each side of the book would have protected this item.

If you can understand the stuff in this book, you probably don't need it. Very complicated and assumes you know a lot already. Not worth the hassle of returning or I would.
