The World's Bellybutton
By Tanya Landman
William Popidopolos is in a race against time in this comic adventure where mythology and reality collide!
William travels to a Greek isle to meet his long-lost father. There he meets a talking swan, who is really Zeus, king of the gods - and he desperately needs William's help. The knot that ties the world together is slipping, and the planet is about to explode! Can they trick the Gorgons and re-tie the knot before it is too late?
- A gripping mythological tale with black and white illustrations.
- "A charming fantasy novel . . . Exuberant illustrations complement this very readable story." School Library Association on 'Waking Merlin'.
