(3) K-3 Illustrated by Preston McDaniels. In this retelling, the jealous queen commands her stepson to bring her a giant's three magic stallions or die trying. Dramatic, sometimes humorous watercolor and graphite illustrations with strong lines and a muted palette suit this Irish tale about a resourceful prince. The story is told with wit and a touch of brogue, making it a good read-aloud choice. An author's note discusses sources.
