(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Olwyn Whelan & Olwyn Whelan. Six folktales and six traditional poems and blessings together form a collection that gives readers a taste of the ancient Celtic culture of the British Isles and Ireland. The retellings, including "The Black Bull of Norroway" and "The Lady from the Lake," are solid and readable. Whelan's decorative illustrations and handsome borders create a strong setting and romantic tone for the stories. Source notes are appended.
