About this ebook
A saga tells of a heroic journey where characters find out who they are, face fear and peril, and with comrades, fight to save their world. The whimsical tales of Edgar & Elouise make up two such sagas.
But how do we know – and even change – how we see ourselves? A strangely wise and wordy porcupine seems to be able to tell us! And after all, he says, “We all need new stories – new ways to see.”
There is also, as in most sagas, a monster to defeat. But first, to even turn and face a monster, there are key questions: How do we face our fear? What can we do in the face of overwhelming odds?
Sagas are about being human in an uncertain and dangerous world. How do we sculpt an inner strength and strong connections with others, and how can we protect what we love – our frail and magical world?
Stories are like magic – they help us survive.
