Illustrated Welsh Folk Tales for Young and Old

Storyteller is storiwr in Welsh. The old word is cyfarwydd. And this book is a sneaky peek into a storyteller’s repertoire.

Meet the rowdy mermaids and drowned lands of Cardigan Bay, an ancient tree with a door into the otherworld, and the wise old toad who lives in Borth bog and knows everything. Discover a clever girl who transforms into a swan, the herd of fairy cattle who live beneath Llyn Barfog and an elephant who may or may not have died in Tregaron.
