Treasury of Norse Mythology: Stories of Intrigue, Trickery, Love, and Revenge (National Geographic Treasuries)

Beautiful book,at a good price. Pages thick & images vibrant.

Our 9 year old daughter got into Mythology having read Edith Wharton's "Mythology." We bought her several of these books, which were cheaper on Amazon than at Costco. The pictures which fill full pages throughout the entire book on every page are beautiful. This book is not only for reading about mythology but teaches children to examine the art as well as the written word, something we have lost sight of.

Simply LOVE IT! The binding, the artwork, the tales, the quality of the paper.. every detail of this book makes it wonderful! I was looking for a book like this since it's perfect for children. It makes it fun for them to read. The only thing is that some of the vocabulary is a bit advance so you will definitely need to read it to them.I bought also the Greek and Egyptian mythology and will definitely buy the Tales from the Arabian Night too.Click the button if this review helped you at all. :)

I bought this book for my 11-year-old grandson who is an honors student studying ancient mythologies and he enjoyed it. I've also bought the Greek Mythology and Egyptian Mythology books by Napoli in this National Geographic series for him as well. The books are well done (as all National Geographic products are) and stimulated his interest in learning more. The amazon online price was roughly half of what I paid for one of the other volumes (with tax) at Barnes and Noble and shipping was free since I could combine it with other purchases, so I was very happy about that! As usual, the amazon experience was positive. Delivery was fast and shipping was better than adequate.

Its great for my child. 4 year old. Its informative without being cheesy like most of the books aimed towards kids. Pictures are great. If your child is hard to focus though it could be too many words although the pictures are striking

My daughter loved this book! We pre-ordered it, and she was through it in one day, then reported it was wonderful, but it was "too short!" and "too many gods, not enough monsters and mythical creatures..." We like the whole series.

He loved it & found text easy to read. His dad is of Norwegian descent so the stories kind of bonded them.

I have always loved legends, folklore and mythology. I have to admit that I was not as familiar with Norse and this book did such a great presentation of it.I bought it to stock up my future kids library but I have to admit that I get just as much out of it.
