This is a fun starting school book that is a little remniscent of The Princess and the Pony. Which for some reason, I have never done a post on. Oh boy! Just think of the fun ahead!
Edda is the littlest Valkyrie.
But sometimes littlest Valkyries, while happy with their lovely Asgard full of magic, adventure, and dragons, want to hang out with people their own age.
Her father knows just what to do!
I bet she stymied her teacher when her kindergarten teacher wanted to make a bar chart about how everyone got to school that day--"Why is there no column for flying horse?"
Even Valkyries can be nervous when they don't know everyone.
When compared to Asgard, school seems to come up a short second.
And no one wants to swap their lunch for her shank of meat.
Even the animals and creatures of school are less interesting (to say the least!) at school.
However, when Edda tells the class about Asgard,
(Dragon hugs!)
She begins to make friends and enjoy school.
So much so that she brings home a play date.
(What kind of mother lets a clearly eccentric man take her son off on a flying horse with eight legs to a mythical land? Clear case of irresponsible parenting right there.)
And on the second day of school, Edda brings her dragon along for his first day of school.
And it appears her friend survived his Asgard play date, so whew!
