Part of Nosy Crow's list of publishing in collaboration with the British Museum, developed in consultation with some of the world's leading experts on Viking history. A kid's life as a Viking might sound like fun, what with all those cool battles and awesome longships, but actually life for kids could be pretty hard.
How do you feel about having to remember loads of old stories or being POKED FULL OF HOLES?
Or what about sharing your room with COWS and SHEEP?
How about spending years on a ship or ending up in a pit full of SNAKES?
WHAT? You think that sounds ALL KINDS OF HORRIBLE?
You're not wrong, buddy! Because while you might be fed up with some of the things you have to put up with today, if you think YOU'VE GOT IT BAD, just wait till you get a taste of a kid's life as a Viking . . .
