(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Bee Willey. With a mixture of scholarship and the oral tradition passed on by her own mother, Daly retells Irish myths including "The Children of Lir" and "Oisín in Tír na nÓg." While the illustrations are sometimes gaudy and inelegant, Daly's writing style is fresh and light, her retellings are well shaped, and she includes a pronunciation guide as well as context to explain Tír na nÓg and other Irish words.
