How do we face the prospect of losing the one thing that defines us? The Soprano, the Monster and the Dragonslayer is a magical allegory of healing, told in poetry, music and art. The Soprano tells the tale of being faced with the decision to save her life, and voice, from the threat of an evil Monster with fiery eyes and snake-like tendrils. A compassionate and fearless Dragonslayer is the only one who can save her. The Soprano's voice is heard in Vashti's poetry and music in this book, illustrated with exquisite artistic elements created by Carol Collett Desert Studio.

Store Description

With 3 stores less than 1 hour outside the DC/Metropolitan area (1 in Gaithersburg, 1 in Frederick and 1 in Hagerstown, MD), we have the largest selection of books in the tri-state area. Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.
