Ms. Larsen explains that according to the ancient Norse story, our world was created from the enormous frost giant, Ymir, the father of all trolls. Even though trolls are extinct, she claims that you can find parts of them in creation. The bulk of the book is dedicated in sharing how one can trick a troll through old Nordic tales retellings.
Kids will love hearing these short, clever stories. My oldest son would have loved this book as a preschooler/early elementary student!
Considerations/discussions: How was the world truly created, Did trolls ever exist?
