People don't make ships and swords unless they intend to use them.\" \u003cbr\u003e The year is A.D. 793. In the next months, Jack and his little sister, Lucy, are enslaved by Olaf One-Brow and his fierce young shipmate, Thorgil. With a crow named Bold Heart for mysterious company, they are swept up into an adventure-quest that follows in the spirit of \u003ci\u003eThe Lord of the Rings.\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Other threats include a willful mother Dragon, a giant spider, and a troll-boar with a surprising personality -- to say nothing of Ivar the Boneless and his wife, Queen Frith, a shape-shifting half-troll, and several eight foot tall, orange-haired, full-time trolls. But in stories by award-winner Nancy Farmer, appearances do deceive. She has never told a richer, funnier tale, nor offered more timeless encouragement to young seekers than \"Just say no to pillaging.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nancy Farmer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0689867441\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780689867446\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Atheneum Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 480\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.69lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.28h x 6.30w x 1.56d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.7\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 16\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Middle Grade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e81202 \/ Sea of Trolls\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Texas Lone Star Reading List - Commended\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Book Sense Book of the Year Award - Honor Book\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Parents Choice Award (Fall) (1998-2007) - Winner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Rebecca Caudill Young Readers Book Award - Nominee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Pennsylvania Young Reader's Choice Award - Nominee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Iowa Teen Award - Nominee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Rhode Island Teen Book Award - Nominee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Young Reader's Choice Award - Nominee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Great Stone Face Book Award - Nominee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Flicker Tale Children's Book Award - Nominee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Louisiana Young Readers' Choice Award - Nominee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Nutmeg Book Award - Nominee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e South Carolina Childrens, Junior and Young Adult Book Award - Nominee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Young Hoosier Book Award - Nominee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Virginia Readers Choice Award - Winner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/19\/2004 pg. 162\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Review - Children\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/15\/2004 pg. 913\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKliatt\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/2004 pg. 8\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eVoice of Youth Advocates\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/2004 pg. 313\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/2004 pg. 163\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHorn Book Magazine\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2004 pg. 706\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2004 pg. 475\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBulletin of Ctr for Child Bks\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2004 pg. 119 - Book Of Special Distinction\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Review - Children\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2004 pg. 1144\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Best Books\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/15\/2004 pg. 1\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSLJ's Best Books\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2004 pg. 44\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eALA Best Books Young Adults\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/15\/2005 pg. 1007\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eALA Notable Children's Books\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/15\/2005 pg. 1020\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHornbook Guide to Children\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2005 pg. 74 - Outstanding, Noteworthy In Style\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2005 pg. 56","brand":"Nancy Farmer","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44046733771007,"sku":"9780689867446","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a7b7201f-5cc3-4ead-bbec-28efb7e25051.jpg?v=1684986167","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-sea-of-trolls-nancy-farmer-9780689867446","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
