My 10 year old son read and loved this book. While we were going through the History curriculum he was so happy to know he already knew about Eric the Red and Olaf.
He gave it the 5 stars.
Sweet story

Sweet story that went perfectly with our Viking studies. However, a bit more difficult to understand for younger listeners. Had to explain what was going on just a couple times. But the did enjoy the story.
Whole family loved!

I used this as a history read around with my kindergarten and 4th grader. They both LOVED it and had many great discussions about the characters and situations in the book. We will definitely read this again in the years to come!
Wonderfully charming book!

This was such a beautiful book. It made a great read aloud for my 8 and 10 year old boys. We loved learning about what life would have been like for the Vikings. Such a great story of friendship and freedom.

It was hard to read and children had a hard time following along.
