A cute little story about how overcoming your personal demons isn't always as hard as it seems. There are enough references to Norse mythology to pique a kid's interest, but not so many that the old tales take over the new story. Gaiman's pretty good about breathing separate lives into his characters when he mixes them with deities and demons.
This book is only available from Amazon.co.uk but it's also only one pound because it was written for World Book Day! (shipping is ~7 pounds by air mail to the U.S.)
