Description
A wealth of Welsh myths, legends and ghost stories are reimagined for contemporary younger readers. Meet Idris, the teenage giant king on a quest to collect stories. As he travels across Wales readers encounter a vengeful house goblin, a ghost that steals life, dwarves that have moved in beneath someone's garden, a tea party of lady ghosts, a furry trickster goblin and many other fascinating and devious fairy folk. These seventeen adventures, fairy tales and ghost stories from across Wales are retold and reimagined by the author as the traditional stories are given new life through the contemporary storyteller's lens: a feisty, inclusive and relatable cast in a mix of traditional and contemporary settings.
