Mythical Irish Wonders is the companion book to Mythical Irish Beasts by author & illustrator Mark Joyce.
Ireland is well known as a land of storytellers and this tradition dates back centuries when tales of giants and epic battles were told around the fireplace. These stories feature well known names like Fionn MacCumhaill, Oisin and Queen Medb to name but a few.
There is the tale of the epic race between Iron-bones and the Bodach. In this book you will find out how the ancients divided the year into four, and how a bardic poem could kill ten rats as well as influence Shakespeare.
A delight for curious readers looking to embark on a journey through an ancient Ireland nearly forgotten.
