Jennie Hall wrote, "These Norse stories have, to my thinking, three values… the love of truth, the hardy endurance, the faithfulness to plighted word, that make them a child's fit companions." This book includes Hall's Viking Tales and Charlotte Yonge's The Little Duke, and has been edited and annotated especially for the use of students following the AmblesideOnline Curriculum.
I can never get through Little Duke without crying multiple times. Such a wonderful book of courage, honor and ultimately forgiveness.
As always, Anne’s notes are so helpful for context, setting up the stories and notes on people and places. I don’t usually use the narration prompts but I love reading through them for ideas!
