Historically the homeland of seafaring Viking warriors, Scandinavia today is a colourful mixture of diverse cultures and languages. This entertaining and educational paper doll collection depicts traditional garb worn by the inhabitants of this vast region: the folk costumes of Norway, Finland, Iceland, Sweden, Denmark, and Greenland. Artist Kathy Allert has created a wardrobe of 32 distinctive outfits and accompanying accessories for two engaging paper dolls. Charmingly rendered in accurate detail, the garments include an Icelandic folk-dancing costume, Finnish Lapp apparel with unusual ""four winds"" hats, Swedish Lapp summer outfits, warm winter clothing and decorative boots from Greenland, a Danish bridal costume with a floral crown, typical Norwegian clothing, including an elaborate bridal ensemble enhanced by distinctive Hardanger embroidery and much more. A map showing countries and regions represented by the costumes introduces youngsters to the geography of Scandinavia. Dolls are printed on the cover flap on sturdy laminated stock; costumes appear on lightweight paper for easy cutting. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |

Compared to Tom Tierney's series, these seem more oriented towards children than adults. The costumes are a little easier to cut out, although anyone wishing to cut every little fiddley-bit may get frustrated. They are extremely charming (and I have most of them), but not as informative. These do not include any historical or cultural information, except for a map showing the location of the various costumes. ( )
