Für die eine sind Zwerge die treuesten Freunde, die andere kennt sie nur als selbstsüchtige Geschöpfe. Die eine trifft ihren Prinzen erst am Ende, die andere wird schon seit langer Zeit von ihm begleitet.

Magic and myth inhabit these chapters in figures both familiar and strange. Giant trolls and talking animals are everywhere. The winds take human form. A one-eyed old woman might seem reminiscent of the Norse god Odin. We meet sly aunts, resourceful princesses, and devious robbers. These stories, set in Norway's majestic landscape of towering mountains and dense forests, are filled with humor, mischief, and sometimes surprisingly cruel twists of fate. All are rendered in the deceptively simple narrative style perfected by Asbjørnsen and Moe.
