review:
'Nordic Tales: Folktales from Norway, Sweden, Finland, Iceland, and Denmark' by Chronicle Books with illustrations by Ulla Thynell is a collection of 16 traditional tales.
The collection is broken up in to three sections: Transformations, Wit and Journeys. There are stories of bravery and courage and foolishness. Trust in the different is a theme and kindness is always rewarded handsomely. Reading these, it's fun to see the similarities and differences to stories I know.
I love the full color illustrations that accompany the beginning of each story. Overall, it's a beautiful collection and I loved the lure of a good tale told well.
I received a review copy of this ebook from Chronicle Books and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
