LIBERTY - A ROUSING TALE OF DANGER ON THE HIGH SEAS When Santiago is thrust into the farm's pigsty, Penelope is captivated by Santiago Talbert's boast, I plan to sail the Seven Seas. Together, these extraordinary pigs escape the farm and cross into the land of Liberty, a parallel world where an intelligent human or animal can get ahead. They follow their dream to Boston Harbor, where they try to convince sea captains that pigs can sail. First, though, Santiago learns mapmaking, while Penelope works on the docks loading ships. Eventually Penelope signs onto the Ice King's crew as he cuts and packs ice to ship to the far-flung corners of the world. When the fleet of ice ships sails, Penelope and Santiago join the crew of the flagship, captained by Captain Kingsley, the Ice King himself. A massive polar bear, he harbors dark secrets, and the pigs face the shocking truth: they alone can save the friendly sea serpents from the Ice King's clutches. From the fascinating world of tall ships comes this unlikely tale of humble pigs who follow their dream. Come and join the Talberts on their journey.

Über den Autor
Storyteller and writing teacher, Darcy Pattison has been a fan of fantastic literature since sixth grade when she read Lord of the Rings and Ender's Game. Even then, she wanted to be on the flip side of stories, on the side that creates what others read. Her books, published with Harcourt, Philomel/Penguin, Harpercollins, Arbordale, and Mims House, have received recognition for excellence with starred reviews in Kirkus, BCCB and PW. The Nantucket Sea Monster: A Fake News Story is a Junior Library Guild selection and a National Council of Teachers of English 2018 Notable Children's Book in Language Arts. Four of her books have been named NSTA Outstanding Science Trade Books: Desert Baths (2013), Abayomi, the Brazilian Puma (2015), Nefertiti, the Spidernaut (2017), and Clang! (2019). POLLEN: Darwin's 130-Year Prediction is a 2019 Junior Library Guild selection. Her stories have been translated into ten languages. She's the 2007 recipient of the Arkansas Governor's Arts Award for Individual Artist.
