Magical Celtic Tales by Una leavy (O’Brien, €14.99)

Magical is the best description for this sparkling collection of tales from Celtic lands from the Isle of Mann to Brittany. The Magic Pail is a beautiful moral story from Cornwall where a childless couple, Jenny and Jack, adopt a fairy child who brings with her a magic pail. In this pail Tamsyn brings home many wonders from her walks. One such gift is a long-eared hare who seems bound for the cooking pot but her father is prevailed upon to release him. When Jenny suggests that Tamsyn bring home her true self in the pail it leads to Tamsyn returning to her real home — fairyland.
