• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Step onto the shores of Cornwall's enchanted land and delve deep into a seam of windswept stories. High up on the cliffs lurk lovesick giants, playful piskies and hungry dragons. Below on the sands, beware hissing spriggans, merrymaids and restless ghosts. In granite villages meet dashing devils and wise women. Among mines, moors and seascapes swirling with folklore, inhale the true spirit of Cornwall and let your imagination run free with the legends of this wonderful place. Capturing the magic of Mid and West Cornwall, folklore writer Anna Chorlton retells its tales, illustrated by local children and artists.
