From magical stories such as 'The Reindeer Herder and the Moon' and 'Katya and the Goat with the Silver Hoof,' to the cleverness found in 'Frostbite' and 'Grandfather Bear,' to the surprising outcome in 'The Raven and the Whale,' readers will turn to these stories again and again. Illustrator Jirina Marton, who herself has long had a deep interest in the North, has perfectly captured the spirit of these stories in each of her beautifully rendered paintings.Retells folk and fairy tales from Scandinavia, Russia, and Canada's far North.
