"Based on a true story, the author humorously recounts the time his grandfather got stranded with a friend on Surtsey, 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." Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

The mostly true story takes place in Iceland in 1964, when the author's grandfather visited a brand-new island forming due to a volcanic eruption. However, the fisherman who brought the grandfather and his friend to the island did not return as promised, stranding them there until a visitor from the United States finds them and they are rescued.
There is generous back matter about Iceland, volcanoes, the island of Surtsey, Norse mythology, and a "did you know?" section. Excellent overall! ( )
