Must-Have for Little Libraries
The media could not be loaded. Love it! THANK YOU! I've never been remotely satisfied with a Norse mythology book for kids, but this is perfect! Easy to read without being simplistic. Age appropriate with the right amount of oddness and edge. Totally triggers the imagination. The art is gorgeous and creative. Perfect for the entire spectrum of readers- from children who prefer small doses read aloud to them, to parents on the verge of reread-madness, to mini intellectuals who will love the glossary, index, further reading, and references! And for my fellow tactilophilic aesthetes, the book itself satisfies the senses. Buy it, gift it, you won't be disappointed!

Good stories, lacking pictures
I'm sorry, but when you have a book for kids, then you need big glorious pictures for the kids to see and get excited about. You need a picture on every other page! This did not have it. I gave it four stars because the text is good, but took a star off due to the sparse images

delightful book for children and adults
This is a wonderful tool for introducing the Norse myths to children and can be a good refresher for adults as well. The chapters are not too long and hold your attention. Dr. Nordvig has included a glossary to help you with pronunciation. There is also a nice reference page for further reading and research if you want more on Norse mythology. The artwork is simplistic, engaging and very colorful. This would make a great gift for Yule or Christmas, I plan of giving a copy to my nephews. I would recommend a hard copy instead of digital to fully appreciate the book especially if you are a tactile person. I look forward to future books of Dr. Nordvig.

Great Abbreviated Norse Mythology With Colorful Graphic Illustrations
Bought this Norse Mythology graphic novel for my grandson. The illustrations are clear and colorful, and true to the short stories of Norse gods and creatures. Perfect for a 10-year-old with Scandinavian roots!

Great read with my daughter.
My 8 year old daughter loves this book. We would read a story a night until we finished and she started reading it again. He did a great job at getting in as many sagas as he could and having them all more appropriate for children. We love this book and will read it many more times.

Great translation
A refreshingly new translation of the sagas and myths and not through the Christian lense. Highly recommend!

Great stuff! Check out his podcast!
My son and I are making our way through this right now, and what a lovely little book with beautiful art! He's 10. Some of the stories are slightly variant from the regular stuff out there, which is fine because a lot of those are divergent based on who translated or fear of some of the ideas within. I had really looked forward to an actual Scandinavian perspective on things, which is why I bought this (aside from the fact his other work is amazing, like the Nordic Mythology podcast or books he's done), and I haven't been disappointed at all so far!If you're a parent with who reads to your children every night, you KNOW that there is a delicate balance between reading a captivating or comforting story and just slamming the book shut and telling them to get the f@#% to sleep! Nordvig figured it out with this one. The few stories that are slightly longer are worth it, and the rest are of perfect length and interest to safely render your child unconscious as quickly and effectively as possible.
