Having grown up in an Irish family I heard these stories as a child from my great grandmother. Seumas MacManus passes on the valor and humour of the Gaelic race in a beautiful flowing style. This is a story book to read to your child at night to excite the wonder and magic in the world for him/her. I highly recommend this book to you...

Very entertaining book of Irish stories

I recently read one of the stories from this book to a group of 4th graders for St. Patrick's Day. It was very entertaining and amusing and the class appreciated its humor. From the stories I read in it it has a very Irish type of humor which I enjoy. Excellent book. Pity it is hard to find.
