Leif the Lucky and the pleasure of long books.
"I was delighted to see that the University of MinnesotaPress has reprinted 1941 book, Lief the Lucky, by Ingri and Edgar Parin D’Aulaire. A big gorgeous book that tells the Norse folktale of Erik the Red and his son Leif the Lucky, and how they discovered Greenland and North America."

The great thing about being an older person is that I have a little more time. Folk tales and stories of the olden days are a particular pleasure to share because it gives the child a chance to ask lots of questions. It’s also pleasure to introduce them to black and white illustration and different ways of using color.
