Þín eigin goðsaga

Rate this book
Sjálfstætt framhald metsölubókarinnar Þín eigin þjóðsaga, sem hlaut bæði Bókaverðlaun barnanna og Bóksalaverðlaunin sem besta íslenska barnabókin.

Þín eigin goðsaga er öðruvísi en aðrar bækur því hér ert þú söguhetjan og ræður ferðinni. Sögusviðið er heimur norrænu goðafræðinnar og ævintýrin eru óþrjótandi. Þú getur lent í bardaga við hræðilegar ófreskjur, orðið vitni að upphafi heimsins, flogið í vagni með þrumuguðinum Þór og reynt að lifa af ragnarök – allt eftir því hvað þú velur.

Yfir fimmtíu ólíkir endar. Óþrjótandi skemmtun fyrir krakka á öllum aldri.

Frábær bók eins og hinar bækurnar hans Ævars. Vel skrifaðar með mátulega mörgum flóknum orðum, skemmtilegar og lærdómsríkar. Í þessari lærum við aðeins inn á goðheimana og um æsina, örlaganornirnar og gyðjurnar. Skemmtilegt að ráða sjálfur ferðinni í sögunni og geta prófað mismunandi útfærslur. Ég sjálf las allar þannig bækur sem ég komst í þegar ég var lítil. Þessi bók fær minn 9 ára til vilja lesa og það er vel. Vona að Ævar haldi áfram að skrifa krakkabækur.
