Scottish Folk Tales for Children, Paperback

The school for wizardry that keeps its pupils prisoner. A forest which springs up from a single thorn, and a loch that grows out of a drop of water. Four demons who believe they have the world completely under their control. Welcome to the world of the Scottish folk tale—a world of talking animals, mischief-making witches, thuggish giants, shape-shifters, bold girls and reckless boys. These stories, specially chosen to be enjoyed by 7-11 year old readers, burst with adventure and glitter with magic. As old as the mountains and the glens, they are freshly re-made for the modern world by storyteller Judy Paterson.
