Taking Norwegian Children's Literature Personally This may be stating the obvious here, but one of the disadvantages of not having money is not being able to buy all the things that you want. For a bibliophile like me, it can be absolute torture to browse through titles I can hardly justify within the constraints of my budget. Books – especially rare children’s and foreign language books – can be truly expensive items and are usually discovered on such a sporadic basis that they masquerade more as impulse buys than practical investments. For children, though, the cost of not having access to foreign literature can be much greater in the long term. norwegian children's literature • barnesanger • eventyr • collection of stories • foreign language books
