Praise for Treasury of Norse Mythology

"With the first volume of Rick Riordan's Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard series just released, Napoli and Balit's new mythology treasury is particularly welcome." – Booklist

"This is truly a layered work, with the illustrations standing alone as startling works of art, and the frequent informational sections (fact boxes, sidebars, character lists, maps, an introduction, a substantial afterword, and a bibliography) offering a thrilling amount of extra material for true fans." – Children's Book Council Starred Reveiw

"Fans of Rick Riordan’s new book, 'Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard,' will want a copy of 'Treasury of Norse Mythology' by Donna Jo Napoli. Napoli’s conversational tone keeps these ancient stories fresh and fun, and the graceful illustrations with gold accents make the book a luxurious gift.” – The Baltimore Sun
