Hereville : how Mirka got her sword  Cover Image Book Book

Hereville : how Mirka got her sword / Barry Deutsch ; colors by Jake Richmond.

Deutsch, Barry. (Author). Richmond, Jake. (Added Author).

Summary:

"Spunky, strong-willed eleven-year-old Mirka Herschberg isn't interested in knitting lessons from her stepmother, or how-to-find-a-husband advice from her sister, or you-better-not warnings from her brother. There's only one thing she does want: to fight dragons! Granted, no dragons have been breathing fire around Hereville, the Orthodox Jewish community where Mirka lives, but that doesn't stop the plucky girl from honing her skills. She fearlessly stands up to local bullies. She battles a very large, very menacing pig. And she boldly accepts a challenge from a mysterious witch, a challenge that could bring Mirka her heart's desire: a dragon-slaying sword! All she has to do is find, and outwit, the giant troll who's got it!" --From the publisher.
