Infos

Stories from Norway is a collection of five wonderful short stories from Philip Newth. Each is a re-telling of one of the many fantastical myths and legends of the Nordic people, with trolls, nissens, Hulder Folk and even a Grimen making an appearance.Aimed at children between seven and eleven years old - though perfect for readers of all ages - the stories were originally broadcast on the BBC program Jackanory in 1974, narrated by much-loved Doctor Who and Worzel Gummidge actor Jon Pertwee.Republished for the first time since its original 1974 print release, this is a great opportunity to add a true classic collection of stories to any family bookshelf.Philip Newth is an Anglo-Norwegian author of children's literature who has written more than fifty books and is a previous winner of the Norwegian Critics Prize for Best Children's Book. His wife - and the illustrator of Stories from Norway - is Mette Newth, whose father is the well-known Norwegian author Fridtjof Knutsen. Together Philip and Mette share a son, Eirik Newth, who himself is a writer of children's science fiction as well as an astrophysicist and media personality.
