A Child's Introduction to Norse Mythology: Odin, Thor, Loki, and Other Viking Gods, Goddesses, Giants, and Monsters

Not sure who loved this book more, me or the kids! I loved sharing the stories with them and they loved hearing them and seeing all the pictures as well. Was a great excuse to sit and read with kids, not that I need one! Beautifully put together

Kids absolutely loved this, and became huge Viking fans as a result. Every morning over breakfast was "hey, did you know THIS about the Norsemen, and THIS...." Wholeheartedly recommend for all kids, the writing is simple yet engaging and provides a really kid-friendly yet accurate telling of Norse Mythology. A must-have for every child's library

I love this book! My son's name is Odin and it was hard to find children's books that stay true to the norse myths while making it enjoyable for children. The illustrations are beautiful and the hard cover makes it durable for kids. It was the perfect first book for is to enjoy for years to come.

Great book and great illustrations.

informative...

My son loved this book so much. He read it In a couple of days.

Brought for my niece as a present, she adores it. Lovely illustrations and the stories presented in simple terms for a 4-6 year old to comprehend.

Bought for my 8 yr old son, well written & nice illustrations. Would recommend.

This has become a treasured possession for my young heathen. It does a beautiful job explaining the creation of the world, gods, goddesses, giants, and so on. The text is big and easy for a first grader to read with help of the big words. The images are fun and have a watercolor look to them (I’m no artist, so I could be wrong) we love how detailed it is, and from my understanding of the Norse Deities, I find it an accurate representation of what we know.

Uma excelente reunião das lendas nórdicas. Vale o alerta que apesar de ser um livro para crianças. As histórias são pesadas, como costumam ser as lendas.

As someone with a passionate interest in the mythology & history of North-West Europe, I was a little wary buying a children's book that tackles the subject. However, I think this book does a good job at introducing the gods & myths, as well as things such as Yggdrasil, to children in a way that's interesting & enjoyable. The artwork is well done, simple but illustrates things well. The gods look as they are described in the source material for the most part, which can't be taken for granted nowadays! Great gift for kids already interested in mythical worlds, fantasy, etc.

Excellent quality edition, presentation, illustrations; great for all ages, actually 🤗

Ist ok, die Bilder sind naja... aber halt kindgerecht auch für kleinere. Wo die geschichte nicjt ganz hin haut kann man ja dazu erzählen was man weiß. Schade das es solche guten Angebote nur auf Englisch gibt.
