My book talk<\/strong>: In a heartbeat’s time, her little sister Miki is stolen away by the feared Ice Sea Pirates, so 10-year-old Siri races to save her from Captain Whitehead’s deadly diamond mines on a secret island.<\/p>\n

How can she follow the pirate ship Snow Raven when adults won’t help?
\nWhy are only children used to mine diamonds?
\nCan she rescue Miki before the seas freeze over?<\/p>\n

This Swedish tale in translation is filled with adventure and daring, as Siri risks her life and safety to bring Miki back to their grieving father, to their snug fishers’ cottage where a tiny piece of mermaid’s tail decorates the wall.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
