Legends of the Cliffs of Moher Reviews

the perfect introduction to Irish folklore from western Ireland. Presented in short story format, the key aspects of each of the legends are presented to the young reader in an accessible and fun manner by the author. The exploration of how some places got their names was an interesting addition to this collection and helps connect old Irish sites to modern locations. The pronunciation guide at the beginning of each story is an invaluable tool to help parents and children alike to read the Irish names and terms contained within this book The illustrations complement the words of each story perfectly, breathing a liveliness into the characters and places described to the reader. This book can be read aloud to a younger audience and can also be read easily by older children Highly recommended for children interested in storytelling, Irish history, and mythology
