Zusammenfassung:Folktales are often fictional oral and written tales that are passed from person to person for many years. However, some tales may seem credible, and to this day people affirm that some of them are true. This book allows children and adults alike to enjoy a selection of Icelandic troll tales. These stories are based on the beloved and well-known folk tales collected by Jón Árnason. A companion volume contains a selection of his fairy and elf tales. Both books are illustrated with the beautiful and colorful works of Florence Helga Thibault. Anna Kristín Ásbjörnsdóttir adapted the tales from the original stories. The language has been simplified a little for present-day readers, while keeping the essence of the Icelandic story-telling spirit. --Publisher's website
