NOT TO BE MISSED!,
By Dorothy J. Coakley (El Cerrito, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Donegal Fairy Stories (Paperback)
Joseph greenleaf has updated this set of classical fairy stories without losing any of the flavor of the original. The illustrations are wonderful, the stories fun to hear or to read. My next suggestion to Mr. Greenleaf is that he produce a CD so that travelers can enjoy these wonderful tales while on the road.

Be a Kid Again!,
By
This review is from: Donegal Fairy Stories (Paperback)
This book brought back so many childhood memories! I loved how Mr. Greenleaf kept the old Irish charm with the modern revision. Great Job! My nieces and nephews couldn't get enough of the stories and kept asking me to read them again. I also really like the artwork of Mr. Quigley. I definately look forward to any future works of Mr. Greenleaf. A definate MUST HAVE!!!!
