Open Your Norse Treasure Box! Enter a world where gods and goddesses mingle with the supernatural beings of the Asgard and Jotunheim, where heroes fight epic battles and monsters are thwarted; where legendary tales are told with an eye toward eternal glory--the treasure that is Norse mythology is an undeniable pleasure to read. Explore another world of medieval times, never to be forgotten. The motifs of Norse legends are similar to that of many other mythologies: Magic is a handy way to explain the extraordinary; heroes are larger-than-life, with superhuman strength and wisdom to spare; gods are tricky and should be approached with caution; harrowing journeys are undertaken; battles are fought and champions are forged. The Norse were the victims of internecine battles and foreign conquests, yet their legacy survives with a long-standing oral tradition that, eventually, was written down. We can see the Norse evolution from settled farmers to raiding Vikings to Christian converts through the thread of their treasure trove of myths and tales. This book can take you through that journey, beginning with an overview of the Norse peoples and cultures, and into an understanding of their pantheon of gods and goddesses, their amazing tales of adventure and restless search for meaning, and a glimpse into who they actually were via the stories they held dear. Some specific elements you will encounter: Some of the main gods of the Norse pantheon, with all their quirks and foibles The mystery of the Nine Worlds, including Asgard and Valhalla The wily ways in which Norse myths weave moral lessons throughout The greatest hero, Thor, and the greatest trickster, Loki, in all of Norse myth The story of Beowulf--the greatest literary hero to emerge out of Scandinavia Tales of the race of giants--the devourers--who spread chaos and destruction The twisted tale of the Mead of Suttungr, the inspiration for poets The original version of Ragnarok--end of the universe Profiles of trolls and Valkyries, elves and dwarves--the supernatural population of Norse mythology The relationship between Midgard and the gods A glimpse into the myriad ways that Norse culture and its mythology still yet influence our world today Norse mythology is diverse and fascinating, offering us an insight into how ancient people believed and lived, what they valued and vilified, and how they lived and thrived. If you have enjoyed these treasured tales of Norse mythology, don't forget to explore the other fantastic realms of mythological magic in this series of books: Treasures of Egyptian Mythology, Treasures of Celtic Mythology, Treasures of Roman Mythology, and Treasures of Greek Mythology. You will find yourself in awe of the sweeping scope of history and culture represented by these mythological traditions, as well as gain a better understanding of how we continually make and re-make these myths for our own times. That's the fabulous thing about myths: They never truly die.

From the authors of the Goddess Girls series comes the second book in a brand-new series steeped in Norse mythology, magic, adventure, and friendship. Twelve-year-old Sif is goddess of the harvest, with her abilities woven into her long, blonde hair. She also has special prophetic powers—she is a seer—but is reluctant to share them after a mishap years ago caused a big rift in a friendship that meant a lot to her. And Sif is determined to not let that happen again! But when the mischievous Loki cuts her hair in a horrible prank gone wrong, Sif orders Loki to fix it. Without her hair, the crops in the land of Midgard—which supplies the wheat for food in Asgard Academy as well—are in danger of dying off. With Sif and Freya, Loki goes to ask for help from the dwarfs, specifically, the sons of Ivaldi who are all skilled blacksmiths and strikes a bargain with them. They hammer and spin gold into fine golden strands along with a spear and a ship that will grow to full size once in water. On his way back through the cave, Loki gets an idea for how to get more treasures by playing one set of dwarfs off against another. Envious of the work of the sons of Ivaldi, the dwarfs Brokk and Eitri say they can do better. Loki replies that he doesn’t think they can and that, furthermore, he’ll stake his head on it. Is that a bet that Loki will regret? And will Sif be able to restore her magical powers to prevent the drought in Midgard?
