Hotel of the Gods – Vikings on Vacation
Loki the Viking trickster god has checked into the hotel and he's ready to have some fun - at the other gods' expense!
The Hotel of the Gods has a new guest! Loki, the Viking trickster god, has come to celebrate Midsummer at the hotel. Everyone is excited about the new arrival - apart from Loki's old rival, Thor. Atlas is thrilled when Loki checks into the hotel for an epic Midsummer Celebration.
Atlas and his best friend Maui find Loki and his shape-shifting tricks hilarious at first. But when Loki's pranks go too far, Atlas knows he has to get the Viking god to leave before the Midsummer party is ruined.
There's only room for one trickster god at the hotel, and a battle of pranks ensues. Who will be the ultimate trickster?
Why has Odin’s horse got eight legs? Why did the fish kiss Thor on the lips? Why are there snakes on the maypole? And why is Thor hiding from Loki in the library?
A humorous book, perfect for family reading fun or independent readers age 7 and over.
