Facts about Ireland's people, landscape, and history are part of the fabric of ten unforgettable stories. The storyteller's voice, both reverent and lively, compels the reader onward through tales of giants, fairies, tricksters, fools, and leprechauns. The paintings reflect the Irish heritage and setting but are contemporary and animated in their appeal. Source notes and a pronunciation guide are included.
