Ronan the Librarian

A man in an viking costume is holding a book in the air while a girl stands and a boy sits by his side.
Tara Luebbe and Becky Cattie

Ronan was a mighty barbarian.
He invaded. He raided. And back home, he traded.
He always found the greatest treasures.
Until one day, Ronan found something no barbarian wants:
A BOOK.

At first, his fellow barbarians are skeptical of his newfound passion for reading, but in the end, even they aren't immune to the charms of a good book.
