There are many different viking warriors in Norse Myths like Thor, the thunder god, and Loki, the shape shifting trickster, as well as sea serpents, frost giants and many other types of gods and goddesses.

• Text to text, North Myths is very similar to a book I've read when I was younger called viking age because there was also a Thor and Loki.
• Text to self, I am like Loki because he is a trickster and so am I.
• Text to world, I have seen people almost as strong as Thor like Arnold from Austria who was the strongest man on the earth.

I liked this book really much because it had a lot of adventure and tragedy. I would recommend this book because it is really interesting. I think this book would be suitable for 8-12 year olds.

Blurb:

Ho , ho , ho! I love Christmas in new mouse city .
But this year , there was just too much work to do at my newspaper ,  the Rodent's Gazette . I was so busy , I could hardly even squeak! And my friends and family were getting their tails in a twist because I didn't have time to celebrate . Cheese niblets! If only I had my own team of reindeer and could fly far, far away to Santa's toy factory.... 

Text to text/self/world: Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus are both fat , I never saw a mouse Santa Claus  before and the reindeers are cute like the ones in real life .

The book is kind of funny but some parts are boring .

I recon that this book suits 8 over because I think when people are eight , they start to like and read it.
