Product Description

LUNGE-LARSEN (LISE) RETELLER & BOWEN (BETSY) ILLUSTRATOR TROLL WITH NO HEART IN HIS BODY, THE.  AND OTHER TALES OF TROLLS FROM NORWAY

An entertaining and wonderfully illustrated compendium of troll lore. What are trolls and why do children love them so much? As tall as trees and as ancient and rugged as the Norwegian landscape from which they come, trolls are some of folklore’s most fascinating and varied creatures. In this collection of nine troll tales, Lunge-Larsen brings a combination of childhood memories and careful research to the retelling of each story, while Betsy Bowen’s striking woodcuts are as timeless and rare as the trolls themselves.   UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA PRESS.
