Gloucestershire Folk Tales for Children by Anthony Nanson

How do you survive a mermaid's curse? Where lurks the immortal cat? Who cooks old boots in a stew? Is treasure really buried down under May Hill? Dive into these tales from forest, vale and high blue hill, on a journey that will take you far into the past, deep into other worlds and through the seasons of the year - all without leaving Gloucestershire! Strange and fabulous stories from all over the county are brought to life in this book by Stroud storytellers Anthony Nanson and Kirsty Hartsiotis.

ANTHONY NANSON and KIRSTY HARTSIOTIS are popular Stroud-based storytellers and the authors of Gloucestershire Folk Tales. Separately, and together in their company Fire Springs, they have performed widely in Britain and beyond.
