This title in other editionsThe Children of Odin: The Book of Northern Mythsby Padraic Colum
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Before time as we know it began, gods and goddesses lived in the city of Asgard. Odin All Father crossed the Rainbow Bridge to walk among men in Midgard. Thor defended Asgard with his mighty hammer. Mischievous Loki was constantly getting into trouble with the other gods, and dragons and giants walked free. This collection of Norse sagas retold by author Padraic Colum gives us a sense of that magical time when the world was filled with powers and wonders we can hardly imagine.
About the AuthorPadraic Colum (1881-1972) was a poet, a playwright, and a leader of the Irish Renaissance, but he is best known for his works for children, including The Children of Odin and The Golden Fleece (a Newbery Honor Book). William Andrew ("Willy") Pogany (August 1882 - 30 July 1955) was a prolific Hungarian illustrator of children's and other books.
