What a Viking! is a wonderful informational children's book. I does have a fictional story that leads the book along but it is more informational about a Viking's life from childhood to adulthood. The illustrations are packed with funny things to look at but it also depicts illustrations of pieces from museums so children can see what the objects that vikings used looked like. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

The book also seemed accurate. The author page states that the Manning and Granstrom "have created over forty picture books together," and in "1996 they received the Smarties Prize in England for The World Is Full of Babies."
Because of the intended audience, there is not a need for academic research but that being said, the book tends to be accurate with the information it is providing. The authors do use stereotypical illustrations and descriptions of Vikings. I do not think they go overboard in describing how the Vikings are viewed in history. They even describe how Bjorn becomes a farmer when he settles down which is historically accurate when it comes to many Vikings.
This book could be used in the classroom to show students all the different tools, customs and inventions that made up the Viking culture. The book does do a great job at showing the reader the different tools that helped Vikings in daily life. The illustrations in the book also show and describe another huge aspect in Viking culture, the sea and all the different boats the Vikings used to navigate it. (
