In this spectacular follow-up to their beloved Book of Norse Myths, the husband-and-wife team of Ingri and Edgar Parin d’Aulaire explore the uncanny reaches of Norse mythology, an enchanted night-world populated by trolls of all kinds—mountain trolls, forest trolls, trolls who live underwater and trolls who live under bridges, uncouth, unkempt, unbreakable, unforgettable, and invariably unbelievably ugly trolls—who work their wiles and carry on in the most bizarre and entertaining fashions.
With their matchless talent as storytellers and illustrators, the d’Aulaires bring to life the weird and wonderful world of Norse mythology.
Here is a book that has lost none of its charm since it was first published. From the opening words, "In the old days The mountains belonged to the trolls, who were as old and moss-grown as the mountains themselves" the reader is hooked. The D'Aulaires enchant with tales of trolls with many heads, troll-hags, trolls who lived under bridges, holder-maidens, changelings, gnomes, ice castles, and princesses. The reader will discover ways to trick trolls, should he or she meet one in the forest. The richness of the Norse mythology is beautifully captured in these tales that flow seamlessly from one to another. The playfulness projected in the illustrations makes the reader both repulsed and entranced by the many-headed trolls. The pages alternate between color and black and white. Place this on your read aloud list and "book talk" it often. With such rich imagery in both the text and the illustrations, it is a classic that every child should know.
