Shropshire Folk Tales for Children by Amy Douglas

This is a children's book. But it is for real children. It is a book of buried treasure, people-eating giants, sleeping kings and a monster fish. There's fire, wee, milk and missing body parts. It's a book that's got the bits adults don't like left in.These are stories of Shropshire. They are old and wild, like the land itself. If you like giants having their heads lopped off, girls who won't do what they're told, knights fighting with lances, one-armed ghosts and grumpy witches, then this is the book for you.
