* "Accessible to middle-grade readers... The Cod's Tale] considers
how the cod fits into human history.... Excellent ink drawings,
brightened with colorful washes, illustrate incidents from the text
with clarity, a flair for the dramatic, and a sense of
humor."
--Booklist, starred review
What was it that enabled the Vikings, Christopher Columbus, and
the Pilgrims to cross the cold Atlantic Ocean to America? What
became a staple of the medieval diet in Europe, helped spur the
American Revolution, and allowed the early New Englanders to start
making money of their own?
Would you believe that it was a fish?
The cod
Based on Mark Kurlansky's New York Times bestselling adult book,
"Cod," this picture book offers a unique look at over a thousand
years of world history.
"Breezy, kid-friendly prose.... Fascinating and informative...
bound to hook young readers."
--The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
