review 1: This book has been on my bookshelf since my childhood, though it was a Japanese version. Since young, I was fascinated by the old Norse stories and mesmerized by Kay Nielsen's artworks. As far as I remember, this book was one of the very first books I got myself when I went to UK, though that one was Wordsworth Children Classic and had Kay Nielsen's artword only for its cover. I just love this book, and re-live the very fascination by re-reading it over and over again.
review 2: I loved this book as a child and fantasized about it often. I was surprised to find that there is another version of this book by a different author and which combines the story with The Frog Prince. Are you kidding me? The original was so beautiful, mystical and a typical journey, l... moreike the trials of Hercules - but undertaken by a little girl. I can't say enough about this original book - exquisite fairy tale. less
