Illustrated Welsh Folk Tales for Young and Old

These tales were told by storytellers long ago, from people all over the world who emigrated to Wales. In this book you'll meet the rowdy mermaids of Cardigan Bay, the hidden lands below the sea, an ancient tree with a door into the otherworld, an old woman who makes love potions and mischief, the wise old toad who lives in a bog and knows everything, a clever girl who transforms into a swan, a green man who lives in no one's land, the enchantress who swallows a poet, a herd of fairy cattle who live beneath a lake, a boy who wears a frock to stop a castle being built, and an elephant who may or may not have died in Tregaron.These stories only come alive for a moment when a stor wr tells them. They are about transformation in ourselves and our world, our friendships and hopes, and scary sounds at night. Just ask those Welsh mountains. They have lived longer than we have. They have listened to birdsong and the sound of rivers and sea. They have heard these tales before.
