SJDYQTJU Stories about the creation of the world, the gods, and humans. These stories share an insight into Norse values. The book itself would be good for a read aloud or individual reading, depending on the age group (probably late 4th-6th grade). In some cases the Norse myths are inescapably brutal, but they also show the value placed on knowledge even by the earliest societies( why was it worthwhile for Odin to lose an eye?). Would be great to use in an assignment asking students to generate pictorial representations of the stories. Summary: Originating from the pre-Christian culture of the Vikings, these myths involve constant squabbling among the Norse gods and goddesses and the frost-giants. Dwarves, dark elves and magical animals are in it, while plots feature clever disguises, spells and crafty ploys, many masterminded by this collection's liveliest character, the trickster, Loki. Genre: Mythology/ Traditional Literature Review: I love Mary Pope Osborne so I was excited to see that she writes mythology, and surprisingly well, too. I loved how vivid the characters were. They all play such big roles in the story and I loved reading it. I didn't read all fourteen, but I did read 5 of them. This is great to read to children as a creative writing lesson. They could write their own stories with creative and unique characters in it. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
