Godfather Death
Author: Sally Nicholls
Format: Paperback
Recommended for ages 7+
In this atmospheric retelling of a Grimm fairy tale, a poor fisherman chooses Death himself to be godfather to his son, reasoning that no one could be more honest. At the christening, Death offers a gift that seems to promise the family's fortune, but as greed takes hold of the fisherman, he comes to understand that no one can truly outwit Death.
Sally Nicholls's reimagining is paired with haunting illustrations by Julia Sarda.
