What is the author's style in The Norse Myths by Kevin Crossley-Holland?

The Norse Myths are set forth like a series of fairy stories. The myths are entertaining. The reader may not initially realize that these myths were what pagan Scandinavians believed in prior to the advent of Christianity. The myths tell the origins of the world, why the sun and moon move in the sky, where earthquakes come from among other explanations. The myths also focus on the exploits of the gods. These gods are similar to those worshiped ancient Greeks and Romans. The gods provide man with wisdom, good fortune, victory in battle, and fertility.
