## Description

Considered one of the finest works of Ingri and Edgar Parin d’Aulaire, Leif the Lucky will delight both children and adults with the story of Leif, son of Erik the Red, who sailed with his father and a Viking crew to Greenland and then farther west to the continent of America. In this charming and lavishly illustrated edition, Leif is a sturdy, adventurous Viking boy who crosses uncharted seas to arrive at “a beautiful land with forests of strange trees growing all the way down to the shores.” Leif wrestles with polar bear cubs, watches the fierce Norse gods race in the glow of the Northern Lights, and becomes a strong and courageous hunter. Written in the spirit of the ancient sagas and rich in color and detail, Leif the Lucky is a fascinating biography of the young Viking explorer.

Review: Fantastic quality! - This book was such a great buy for our family library. The book itself is beautiful with the cover image printed on the book itself as well as on the protective sleeve, gorgeous detailed pictures and an incredible story to learn about the Vikings. Opening this book made me excited to read to my kiddos.
Review: Books from these authors are incredible - We LOVE this story in my household. My 6 year old boy immensely enjoys reading this as does my 3 year old girl, even with the long form story. The illustrations are very detailed and interesting, and we thoroughly enjoy all the books we own from these authors. They spent a lot of time including interesting story lines and facts about the main character, and this is a great book for learning about early explorers and norse culture.

We homeschool and have used this book for one of our history lessons. Every single page is filled with beautiful and amazingly detailed illustrations. The pages of the book are of great quality and thick textured paper. Definitely get this book of you plan on teaching about the Vikings coming to Vinland.
