Annotation: An Irish adventure in time for St. Patrick's Day! When a ship arrives in the harbor, Margaret seizes the chance to see the world. But the adventure brings danger, and soon she must face a sea serpent, a giant, and a sorceress who wants to make Margaret a pawn in a plan of her own. It takes a magic ring, an enchanted sword--and the discovery that she is as brave as any man--to bring Margaret and her true love safely home. Full color.
