Old Tales from the North

East of the Sun and West of the Moon

Harriet Moar-Smith

I think if I'd had this read to me I would have enjoyed it, or if I hadn't have read it so fast, story after story. I guess it feels more honest as a written account of oral storytelling but in the reading, it feels like a rambling tumble of ideas in each story. Some really lovely moments and illustrations though.
