Perfect for St. Patrick's Day!
I searched for a book for our family's St. Patrick's Day celebration and found this. It is perfect for gathering the family together and delving into Irish folklore, fairy tales and more.

This compilation of Irish verse, stories and lore is a treasure. Not only has Krull done an exemplary job in putting it together, it is well illustrated (yeah, I'm a sucker for McPhail's work).
