“Trash, Trolls, and Treasure Hunts” is the story of how the Danish recycle art activist Thomas Dambo built the first 100 trolls across the world. Through hundreds of photos, original poems, and fairy tales, as well as behind-the-scenes highlights, the reader can glimpse the challenges of building a troll on a mountain in minus 23-degree weather, hear the story of how a homeless man saved the project by giving Thomas his car, discover how Thomas parents became part of a deal for an extra sculpture negotiated with a skeptical Chinese official, and uncover countless other crazy and inspiring stories that unfold every time Thomas, his team and all the volunteers journey around the world to build trolls.
