>Based on a true story, the author humorously recounts the time his grandfather got stranded with a friend on a brand new volcanic island in Iceland. The adventurers face epic challenges like molten lava, melted eyeglasses and scant supplies before finally getting rescued. Graphic novel-like layouts and spirited text invite readers to search for the one thing that's not actually true in this thrilling yet light-hearted tale of adventure. Endnotes include information about volcanoes, Icelandic culture and Norse mythology.
Information about Iceland, Surtsey, volcanoes, and gods of Norse mythology. Author’s note. Illustrator’s note. Full-color illustrations were prepared in inks, monoprints, and drawing on paper, developed further digitally.
