Faerie Isle: Tales and Traditions of Ireland’s Forgotten Folklore

English

By (author): Síne Quinn Dermot Flynn

Illustrated by: Dermot Flynn

A stunningly illustrated collection of magical Irish folklore for readers age 8+, with a foreword by Laureate na nÓg Patricia Forde

"Breathes new life into centuries-old folklore, with atmospheric retellings and lush illustrations. I loved it." Ellen Ryan, bestselling author of GIrls Who Slay Monsters

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 faerie 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 sixteen remarkable Irish faeries. With "fact" pages exploring each fae's traits and origins, 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.
