Norwegian Folk Tales East O' the Sun and West O' the Moon Retold by Gudrun Thorne-Thomsen Illustrated by Frederick Richardson A collection of over twenty Norwegian folk tales and fairy tales. In preparing the stories for publication, the aim has been to preserve, as much as possible, in vocabulary and idiom, the original folklore language, and to retain the conversational style of the teller of tales, in order that the sympathetic young reader may, in greater or less degree, be translated into the atmosphere of the old-time story-hour.
