LEIF FROND AND QUICKFINGERS

Set in a distant past when Vikings wore horned helmets and were generally scary, Young Leif daydreams about being a great hero.

But as youngest in the family the dirtiest chores fall to him. When a bearded pedlar comes to the village to sell his wares he’s welcomed by everyone — except Leif who feels there’s something dodgy about the old guy, especially with the name Quickfingers. Narrated by Leif, this is a laugh-aloud fun for age 8+
