Produktbeschreibung
Idunn's Trees is an illustrated story and coloring book that tells a new tale about the Goddess Idunn and her response to Loki's efforts to steal her magical apples. Once upon a time, Loki had tricked Idunn into leaving the safety of Asgard, and she and her apples were snatched by a giant. Loki was able to get her back, but Idunn was not happy about her treatment! In this new story, Idunn has a different way of handling Loki's attempted theft of her apples. This book has many black and white photos and painting reproductions, as well as original line drawings which can be colored in, and other drawing activities for children. (Permission is given to photocopy the line drawings for personal or classroom use only, if the book is a library holding.) It is suitable for children of an age to be read to, and for older children who enjoy reading on their own. There are also notes, photos and pictures that give a little information about the Norse myths, beliefs and customs that form a background to the story. A Toad is prominently featured, with a bonus poem about him at the end (he refused to stay out of the story). "Idunn's Trees is a beautifully written interactive children's book that not only teaches its readers about Idunn, her apples, and Loki, but it also holds space for a very important hidden teaching on actions. This book will definitely have a special place on our homeschooling bookshelf." Jaquie Lait, Author, Homeschooling Mother, and former Youth Support Officer (Australia). "The Stirrer of Stories proves to be no match for the Goddess Idunn in this delightful new tale that turns the tables on the old Trickster. Forest Hawkins' illustrations perfectly support this story of trust, tradition, and the magic of storytelling." Laurie Inn, Schoolteacher.
Autorenporträt
Winifred Hodge Rose has published two nonfiction adult books on concepts of the souls in ancient and modern Heathen (Germanic Pagan) tradition. Many of her articles can be found on her website at HeathenSoulLore.net. She has always enjoyed being around children and telling them stories, and her 15 years as a grandmother have offered many opportunities for honing her storytelling skills. This is her first published children's book. She is looking forward to writing more books for children. Forest Hawkins is a long-time artist and illustrator. As both a Heathen practitioner and a practiced artist, illustrating "Idunn's Trees" was the perfect opportunity to help spread a Heathen message of inclusivity and education. Those values along with the rich lore through which they are often shared, drew him to this project. You can follow Forest at _yonk_art_ on instagram.
