Tales and Legends of Scotland

A collection of the 11 best magical Scottish and Celtic tales and legends processed by Teresa Breslin – a world-renowned British children's writer, born in Scotland, author of over thirty books for children and teenagers, and holder of the Carnegie... Medal, a prestigious literary award for the best children's book.
Among the tales included in the collection are legends about fairy creatures from Celtic and Scottish folklore, stories of friendship, love, and loyalty, as well as interesting, very unusual, and extremely educational Scottish versions of the well-known tales of Kolobok and Little Red Riding Hood.
The tales are written in beautiful literary language with a considerable dose of humor, excellently translated and edited, and specially adapted by the compiling author for preschool children. They brilliantly convey the atmosphere of the fairy world of Celtic and Scottish folklore, unique ancient traditions, and the spirit of this special country.
The illustrations for the book were created by the famous Scottish artist Kate Leiper.
