Author: Donna Jo Napoli

Description: Captivating illustrations of gods, goddesses, heroes and monsters fill this collection of classic Norse myths. Included among these collections of stories are those of Thor, the god of thunder and his trickster brother, Loki.
Evaluation: This collection takes a timeline approach to Norse mythology, starting with stories of creation then moving to detail the various beings throughout Norse mythology. Rather than just telling the stories of specific gods or goddesses, this collection gives readers the opportunity to learn about the different facets of Norse mythology.
Usage: This collection provides an informative resource for those interested in learning about mythology. The ideal age range for this resource would be ages 8-12 years old. This could also be used as a non fiction pairing to a fiction read along such as Rick Riordan's Magnus Chase series based on Norse characters.
