(from the publisher)

Spunky eleven-year-old Mirka Herschberg isn’t interested in knitting lessons from her stepmother or how-to-find-a-husband advice from her sister. There’s only one thing she does want - to fight dragons! Granted, no dragons have been breathing fire around Hereville, the Orthodox Jewish community where she lives, but that doesn’t stop her from honing her skills. She battles a very large, very menacing pig. And she boldly accepts a challenge from a mysterious witch, a challenge that could bring Mirka her heart’s desire: a dragon-slaying sword!
