One day I saw Bjorn running around scattering acorns everywhere. Pops Pop was aggravated at him from stealing his acorns from the terrace above the Disappearing Pond.

Pops Pop on his knees frustrated in front of his bear oak shrubs with some loose accorns about.

I stopped him and asked what he was doing.

He said he was scattering acorns to keep the Nock from leaving the water. The Nock is a dangerous critter who lives in the water.

Sammy stealing a lamb.

When he was finally finished, he joined me sitting under the old post oak tree.

"What are you doing?" I asked again.

"Scattering acorns to scare away the Nock."

"Does it work?"

"Do you see any around?"

Karl walking in the woods with his fingers in his ears.

Then an acorn dropped on his head.

" I used to wonder why acorns drop from big trees and pumpkins grow on delicate little vines," he said.

Sammy Buck giving Fossegrim the lamb as the troll came out of the falls with a gristmill behind him.

"So?"

"Now I happy that they do," he said raising his eyebrow.

The gang walking within a tree canopied trail with the moon behind them in an eerie light..

Following the Harry N. Abrams, Inc. tradition of the series that created Brian Froud's and Alan Lee's Faeries and Gnomes by Wil Huygen and Rien Poortvliet, we present you with what would have been the next book in the series: Trolls: A Compendium. Trolls—do you think you know what they are? Could you be wrong?

Trolls within Scandinavian lore, myth, saga, fantasy, and folktales are actually anything magical within our northern neighbor's culture. Richly illustrated in this volume are the tales of faeries, dwarves, nissen, huldras, gods, Jotuns, draugar, ghosts, and more. Also, this book introduces our readers to the world of Trollheim, populated by Nattrolls that escaped the 17th-century Swedish colony within the New Jersey Pine Barrens. Narrated by Christopher Jonathan Hulton, who lives in the Thousand Acre Woods just after the Civil War, their tales are filled with Native American lore and tales of their neighbor, the Jersey Devil.
