Viking Strong

By Doug Cenko

Ingrid has everything a Viking could want, a cozy home, a loyal companion, and extremely cute kittens. But she's always wanted one more thing... to win the Strongest Viking Contest!

She can lift an entire ship, outrun the speediest racer, and toss sea monsters as if they were minnnows. But there's one thing she can't do: she doesn't know how to swim! Her sweetheart, Stig, is determined to help her learn...but along the way, Ingrid discovers that some things are even more important than winning. 

Here is a story that shows the importance of determination and the strength of kindness.
