This story, told by an award-winning author, is set in the breathtaking Scottish Highlands of the mid-1300s. This tale follows seven-year-old Aila, a brave girl who dreams of becoming a Knight in Shining Armor-a role her clan believes no lass should ever aspire to.Defying gender roles and breaking stereotypes, Aila refuses to learn the so-called 'woman skills.' Instead, she hatches what her brother calls her 'mad scheme' to master archery and combat, determined to push against status quo norms and inspire girl empowerment. Aila knows she must change the way the Scots view their womenfolk to prove that girls can be just as strong and capable as boys.One fateful night, as the castle slumbers, Aila and her brother secretly practice their skills with a bow and arrow in the moonlit courtyard. Suddenly, a deafening roar shatters the stillness, and a massive dragon with glinting golden eyes and smoldering breath crashes through the lush foliage. Standing side by side, arrows drawn, the siblings face the terrifying creature-a true test of Aila’s fearless determination. Will she meet this challenge and show her clan what a young heroine is truly capable of? Could her courage inspire a change that will ripple through history?Highlights• Step into the 1300s Scottish Highlands - where castles, misty glens, and lush landscapes set the scene for adventure• Meet Aila, a heroine like no other - determined to prove that bravery & skill know no gender• Face off against a fire-breathing dragon - perfect for readers who crave action and excitement• Champion themes of resilience and empowerment - inspiring young minds to challenge stereotypes• Enjoy a beautifully illustrated story - that sparks imagination and invites you to explore history & adventure togetherFilled with themes of girl power, challenging boundaries, and breaking barriers, The Lass is an empowering story for readers ages 5-7 who dare to dream boldly and defy expectations.
