Terror of the Sea
Norwegian title: Havets skrekk
This is a real pirate book!
Hedgehog has found a note in a bottle from someone asking for help. It is just as well that Rabbit is building a pirate ship. Together the two friends build a great ship that they christen Terror of the Sea. They dress up as pirates and embark on a sea voyage. But Hedgehog is worried. He cannot swim and doesn't like water, and when a huge pike tries to capsize the boat, things look bleak.
But they have to get to the island where they think that the person who wrote the note is, and eventually they make it to shore unscathed. They search and search, but find no one. They also feel like someone is watching them. Eventually they decide to head home again. But there is a surprise waiting for them back on the ship.
Terror of the Sea is the fifth book about Rabbit and Hedgehog, two charming friends that have exciting adventures. Jan-Kåre Øien's illustrations are lively, colourful and full of funny details that will amuse both children and adults.
