On the Isle of Man the fairies are never called fairies, but Themselves or the Little People, red-capped huntsmen with rainbow-coloured hounds. Sophia Morrison retells the island’s tales, including the buggane of Glen Meay waterfall, how the Manx cat lost her tail, the making of Mann, the herring’s crowning and the hairy Fynoderee.
A delightful collection from a devoted folklorist of the island, for children and adults alike. Download the free EPUB.
