At the city centre of quaint Lillehammer you will find late 19th-century wooden houses that overlook the northern part of lake Mj sa and the river L gen. The town is surrounded by high, beautiful mountains, which is why this city hosted the 1994 Winter Olympics and the 2016 Winter Youth Olympics. There is a very old saying in Norway that if you are a true Norwegian, you were born with skis on your feet. This may be true, because the Norwegian people have been skiing for over 4000 years! Norwegians also believe there is no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothes; and they love to go on tour! When they meet others who are on tour, they greet them with the words, God tur, which means, Have a good trip!

So God tur, and have a good trip as you travel vicariously through the pages of this learn to read book created just for kids by the award winning author, attorney and former teacher, Penelope Dyan, and photographer, John D. Weigand, and see a bit of what they saw when they visited this 1994 Winter Olympics host city. When you are done, watch the free music video that goes with this book on Bellissimavideo’s YouTube channel. And remember… when learning is fun, kids love to learn!
