Warning: this book contains a troll!
Three brave little Viking girls save the day in this bold and funny adventure story for little rebels, by the creator of the New York Times Best Illustrated Book Little Red and I Can Catch a Monster, Bethan Woollvin.
Once upon a time in a Viking village, everything seems to be going wrong. Chickens are disappearing, trees are falling down, and there's lots and lots of crashing and bashing. The silly Chieftain won't listen to the three littlest Vikings, but can they work together to solve the mystery and save the day?
Three Little Vikings is all about cooperation, bravery, and getting your voice heard!
Bethan Woollvin’s feminist takes on fairytales for very little children (Little Red, Rapunzel and Hansel & Gretel) accompanied by her distinctive, bold, colourful illustrations have rightly earned her a prize place in the picture-book market. -- Alex O'Connell - Children's Book of the Week * The Times *

“I’ve long been a fan of Woollvin’s bold, colour-block illustrations and deadpan humour and love this story that turns a traditional tale upside-down with a lesson in empowerment for all of us. Great for reading aloud, it’s the ideal response to an adult who always thinks they ‘know best’, so parents beware . . .” -- Sally Morris * Daily Mail *
A story that will likely appeal to all the independent, bookish readers out there. * BookTrust *
