Did you know?

 

Seamen may have known that
Iceland existed as early as the
A.D. 300s. The first settlers came
from Norway in A.D. 874.  

 

Much of Iceland is covered with
snow and ice fields, called glaciers,
as much as 3000 feet thick in places.

 

Special foods in Iceland
include pickled shark and
boiled sheep's head.

 

Read about volcanoes and geysers,
wildlife and ancient sagas in the Land
of the Midnight Sun. Plus, learn what
your name would be in Iceland.
