This review is from: Magic & Mischief: Tales from Cornwall (Hardcover)
No other book but Pippi Longstocking has been as much fun to read out loud to my daughter. The prose is simple yet carefully chosen to roll off the tongue easily. A perfect bed-time story length, the tales captured my 7-yr-old's imagination so thoroughly that she now goes to bed with her nightgown inside out and asked to sprinkle dill weed in the corners. (Read the book, and you'll know what I mean.) As an adult, I enjoy the humor and appreciate the gentle lesson or two. Now, please excuse me--I have to go set a bowl of cream outside the back door...

my kids were entranced by these tales of those feisty spriggans and knackers. These are the wonderful stories to read to grandchildren , or have them read to you, about the really Olden Days when there was magic all over the world! The pictures are great. I wish we could have a spriggan on a T-shirt!

Being a proud Cornish-American, this book was the perfect Christmas gift for me to give to my 4 year old grandson. He loves to be read to, loves magic and giants and all things mysterious and I love passing on bits of our heritage. The illustrations are lovely, the stories are fascinating and the bonding time we spend while reading and discussing them is priceless.
