"Odin took the horn in both his hands and drank and drank. And as he drank all the future became clear to him. He saw all the sorrows and troubles that would fall upon Men and Gods."
Padraic Colum's retelling of the old Norse myths is a great introduction to the gods and monsters of the Viking age. Odin All Father attempts to bring peace to the world of men, but the trickster god Loki causes trouble after trouble. With giants and dragons roaming free, will Thor be able to defend the people of Asgard and stop Ragnarok?
More than just fairy tales, the stories in The Children of Odin show the importance of honor, wisdom, and the spirit of adventure. Colum's simple and clear prose is a hit with both children and adults, winning the Irish-American poet a Newbery Medal for his contributions to children's literature.
Kobo Editions offers this fully-accessible version of the original text for your enjoyment.
