The stark beauty and mystery of the northern lands have always fascinated storyteller Bob Barton. Here he collects his favorite folk and fairy tales from Scandinavia, Russia, and Canada?s far north. Originally passed by word of mouth, a few of the tales were published in sources now out of print, and most were at risk of being lost forever. Stories like the magical "Reindeer Herder and the Moon" and the surprising ?Raven and the Whale" are ideal for reading aloud or alone. Jirina Marton?s colorful paintings perfectly capture the spirit of these exotic lands and the timeless tales that honor them.
