TOP-OF-THE-WORLD STORIES
Tranelat««! from ihe Scandmavian Languages
By EMILIE FOULSSON and LAURA POULSSCtt
?.!äustrated in two eders by Florence Liley Young
^PHESE stories of magic ?.nd
adven-* ture corae from the ccuntries
the “top of the world, and wid
transport thither in fancy the chiidrsn
who read this unusual bock. They
tell of Lapps and reindeer (even a
gold en-horned reindeer !), of prince
rod herd-boy, of knights and wolves
and trolls, of a boy who could be
hungry and merry at the same time—
of all these and more besides ! Miss Poulsson’s numerous
and long visits to Norway, her father’s land, and the faet that
she is an experienced writer for children are doubtless the
’■easons why her translations are sympathetic and skilful, and
yet entirely adapted to give wholesome pleasure to the young
public that she knows so well.
“In these stories are the elements of wonder and magic and adventure
that furnish the thrill so much appreciated by boys and girls ten or twelve
yeavs of age. An aristocratic bcok — one that every young person will be
perpetually proud cf.’5—Lookout, Cincinnati, O.
“In this book the children are transported to the land they „ave best,
the land of magic, of the fames and all kinds of wonderfui nappanings,
It is one of the best fairy story books ever pufciished.”— Argus-Leader,
Sioux Falls, S. D.
