Gallows hill

Irish folk tales with a ghastly ghostly twist! Two tales in each book, written in Martin Waddell's inimitable lyrical style. Every story is packed with atmosphere and a twist of gentle humour. From Boneless's revenge on the tricky tinker and Eileen's ghostly dance to her death, to Soft Butter rising from his grave in a field and Himself's refusal to leave Dan alone - wherever he goes, children will be drawn on irresistibly by these original stories. Illustrated throughout with James Mayhew's atmospheric line drawings. A further two titles in the series to follow in August.
