Beowulf: Band 09 Gold/Band 14 Ruby

By Anita Ganeri

Long ago, the king of Denmark built a huge hall for feasts, and he called it Heorot. But the noise from the hall woke a sleeping monster in the nearby swamp - Grendel. Could the brave warrior Beowulf save Denmark's people and fight the monster? This retelling of the Old English tale was written by award-winning author Anita Ganeri.
