IMMERSE YOURSELF IN MIST AND MAGIC AND DISCOVER HEROES AND MONSTERS RIGHT ON YOUR DOORSTEP....
You will have heard of Thor, Medusa and Hercules. But what about the myths of the British landscape? The Trojan heroes who wrestled giants. The Syrian sisters who found refuge on our lands. The dragons who slept in hollow hills. And the kings who communed with the dead...
In this vivid mythology of Britain, children will discover enchanting tales of magic and adventure, giants and demons, princesses and prophecies.
Travelling across the wildest of landscapes - as far north as Orkney and south as Cornwall, young listeners will be transported to sacred sites like Stonehenge, they will climb the mountains of Snowdon, dive into the Lochs of Scotland, and sail down the rivers of Britain, discovering a land steeped in myth, monsters and heroes.
Adapted from Amy Jeffs' bestselling Storyland, this is a definitive and dynamic children's introduction to Britain's lost myth and legends.
