The Treasure of the Loch Ness Monster: Cover Reveal!
Posted on 30/11/2017 in Folk and Fairy Tales Lari Don
Apparently 2017 was a record year for Loch Ness Monster sightings. We predict 2018 will be even better…
We’re so excited to reveal the cover for The Treasure of the Loch Ness Monster. Our latest Traditional Scottish Tale brings together Lari Don‘s unique storytelling with stunning illustrations from Natasa Ilincic. This is the first ever Nessie picture book based on real folklore from Loch Ness. You can #TreasureNessie with us from March 2018.
“Don’t you remember the old story? About two doors hidden in the rock? Behind one door there’s a room full of poison, behind the other there’s a room full of treasure!”
“That’s just a story. It’s not real. It’s no more real than the big green monster our great-grandpa claimed he saw in the loch when he was wee.”
What do you think of our cover? Let us know on Twitter, Facebook or Instagram. Remember to tag your post with #TreasureNessie!
