Lapland

Discover our selection of books about Lapland and the Sami people, put together especially to go with the next Escargot Post letter.

In this selection: picture books full of traditions, stories revealing fascinating landscapes, tales inspired by Norse myths, nonfiction to explore daily life, and books that shine a light on the culture of the Nordic countries and Lapland.

As an introduction, we loved the book from the Quelle Histoire “Mythologie Nordique” series, which is perfect for first independent reading. And for more experienced readers, “Le Grand livre de la mythologie nordique” will let fans of cold countries learn more about the local heroes.

For those who prefer novels, “Le pays des géants de glace” will plunge them into the polar winter and its endless night, where they will meet frightening giants… who are not necessarily very clever! At the end of the novel, you will find a bonus section about Lapland.

Finally, for budding detectives, “Code secret en Laponie” lets readers dive into a fascinating investigation while discovering northern Europe.
