Oxford Reading Tree: Stage 15
This is the second book I’ve written in this series. I really enjoyed the chance to retell some of my favourite monster stories. Read what Theseus thought of the Minotaur, find out how a giant bird called the Roc made Sinbad the Sailor a rich man, meet two Viking brothers as they try and survive the dreaded Kraken and save their village – and learn the secrets of the Egyptian phoenix – the bird with the gift of eternal life.
