MOWGOWR AND THE PIRATE EATING MEGALODON

MOWGOWR AND THE PIRATE EATING MEGALODON

Have ye heard of Billy Ray,

Morgowr’s friend who sailed away?

A pirate brave and bold was he,

a legend of the high seas;

but he sadly lost a leg –

replaced it with a wooden peg.

He was eaten by a giant shark;

inside it was damp and dark.

This is the strange tale of Cornwall’s legendary sea monster Mowgowr (Cornish for Sea Giant),who makes friends with a boy who grows up to be pirate.

This is the third Morgowr tale by illustrator and award-winning author Judy Scrimshaw.
