Hard Cover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. McCauley, Adam (illustrator). 2nd Printing. BO3 - A 2nd printing hardcover book signed by the author in fine condition in fine dust jacket that is mylar protected. The Time Warp Trio series. Illustrated by Adam McCauley. 8.5"x5.75", 73 pages. Satisfaction Guaranteed. 'Viking It and Liking It' is the twelfth of Jon Scieszka's 'Time Warp Trio' books. The trio, Fred, Sam, and Joe, this time find themselves getting to know some very real Vikings. The time is 1000 CE and they are on Leif Eriksson's boat, transported there once again by an unintended encounter with their Uncle Joe's mysterious time-travel book. They suffer through a series of adventures that includes a diet of roast walrus and whale blubber and getting caught up in a family dispute between Leif Eriksson and Grim Snake-in-the-Grass. Once again it is their wits that save them and eventually get them back home. Scieszka (rhymes with Fresca and means 'path' in Polish) was born in Flint, Michigan on September 8th, 1954. He grew up in a family with five brothers, an elementary school principal father and a registered nurse mother. He credits his unique sense of humor and inventive creativity to an expansive group of experiences and influences including sharing the same birthday with Peter Sellers, 'Mad Magazine', four years of pre-med undergraduate college, 'The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show', a Master of Fine Arts degree in Fiction from Columbia University, five years painting apartments in New York City, the author Robert Benchley, the author and illustrator Lane Smith, book designer Molly Leach, Dr. Seuss' 'Green Eggs and Ham', and ten years of teaching elementary school and middle school kids. Scieszka's first book, 'The True Story of the 3 Little Pigs!', illustrated by Lane Smith, was a surprise hit. From there Scieszka has gone on to win various awards for his children's books. Scieszka is also the creator and one of the major authors of the 'Trucktown' series of children's books. This series was developed in part out of his efforts in promoting literacy for boys through his 'Guys Read' nonprofit literacy program. Satisfaction Guaranteed. Scieszka is particularly well known for his work with the noted illustrator Lane Smith. Their work together includes 'The True Story of the Three Little Pigs', 'The Stinky Cheese Man and Other Fairly Stupid Tales' (a Caldecott Honor book), 'Math Curse', 'Science Verse', 'Seen Art', 'Squids will be Squids', and the first eight hardcover editions of the 'Time Warp Trio' series.

He is crafty with a bow and arrow and wise in the ways of the animals, but he can only dream of a warrior's life. That is, until the dark day a Saxon's blows lay his father on his deathbed, and his mother makes a tragic bargain for Halfdan's freedom. A boy's destiny can come at the most terrible price. Halfdan must suffer a grave loss in order to grasp what he most desires: to train by, to live by, and, if the fates decree it, to die by the force of his sword and the swiftness of his arrow. He is to be a warrior - a great warrior. Bloody, furiously paced, heart-wrenching, and unflinching, this is a story of a land where the destinies of boys and men are forged in the heat of battle. Young Halfdan shall come to know the glories of true brotherhood and the unspeakable horrors of true evil. In this first book in a saga teeming with thrilling details of the Viking world, young Halfdan emerges as a new hero . . . a new myth . . . a new legend. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
