This story is a retelling of ‘The Cat on the Dovrefell’ (from ‘Popular Tales’ from the ‘Norse’ by Asbjorsen and Moe, translated 1859). The trolls of Norwegian folklore were highly mischievious and this traditional tale captures their character. Set in Norway about 1800. Silver level titles (equivalent to the White bridging book band) use sentences with two or three clauses and the length of the texts extends to around 1000 words to help build reading stamina. Real-life problems are also introduced to encourage empathy. Available for Levels 15–24, PM Traditional Tales and Plays retell classic tales in a simplified language and form that children can understand. Teachers use the tales in guided reading sessions and children can later read them with confidence and understanding. Parts are colour-coded for easy recognition. #pm19-offer
