Product Description
The wonder, the excitement and the adventure of an Irish fairyland. A fairyland so real that young readers will know that it is just around the corner.
Here the prices are good and handsome, the princesses beautiful and honest. There is a crock of gold at the end of every rainbow. The good people and the kind people always get their just reward. And the evil-doer gets his just deserts.
In other words, here is the land of the imagination of the young. A land with a special charm and appeal that makes grown-ups wish they ere young again - and makes children happy that they still have the power to believe.
"All the stories are beautifully told. How happy Mrs. de Valera must be writing stories they bring so much happiness to children and parents alike." - taken from the back cover blurb.
