When Women Were Dragons
Product Info
In this timely and timeless speculative novel, set in 1950s America, Kelly Barnhill exposes a world that wants to keep girls and women small - and examines what happens when they rise up. Alex Green is four years old when she first sees a dragon. In her next-door neighbour's garden, in the spot where the old lady usually sits, is a huge dragon, an astonished expression on its face before it opens its wings and soars away across the rooftops. And Alex doesn't see the little old lady after that. No one mentions her. It's as if she's never existed. Then Alex's mother disappears, and reappears a week later, one quiet Tuesday, with no explanation whatsoever as to where she has been. But she is a ghostly shadow of her former self, and with scars across her body - wide, deep burns, as though she had been attacked by a monster who breathed fire.As a small business, we believe it is our responsibility to always have sustainability in mind.
The joy of being small is that every decision is our own to make - what materials go into our products, what packaging we choose, what businesses we buy from and who we choose to stock.
We can’t afford a lot of the volume discounts that mean these choices don’t impact us financially, but this is part of why we price ourselves the way we do, as it’s the right thing to do.
