The Caldecott medal-winning d'Aulaires once again captivate their young audience with this beautifully illustrated introduction to Norse legends, telling stories of Odin the All-father, Thor the Thunder-god and the theft of his hammer, Loki the mischievous god of the Jotun Race, and Ragnarokk, the destiny of the gods. Children meet Bragi, the god of poetry, and the famous Valkyrie maidens, among other gods, goddesses, heroes, and giants. Illustrations throughout depict the wondrous other world of Norse folklore and its fantastical Northern landscape.

      Originally published as "Norse Gods and Giants", this lavishly illustrated compendium includes an insightful introduction by Michael Chabon. The d'Aulaires manage to capture the wildness and strangeness of the Norse pantheon with their bold lithographs and no-nonsense prose. Now a new generation of children can enjoy this impressive volume as much as their parents did.
