Description
The folklore of Ireland has long been beloved by children across the world, but the lesser-known heroes and villains of Irish legends are the fae – the fairy folk.
From trickster spirits to slippery shape-shifters, from the tiny leprechaun to the enormous giant, this stunningly illustrated gift book will guide you through fifteen remarkable Irish fairies. With "fact" pages exploring each fae's origins and traits, followed by a beautifully illustrated double page story inspired by true tales found in the Irish Folklore Collection, this will be a special gift for children everywhere.
