A fascinating look at the ancient myths of the Celtic people

The ancient myths of a culture tell you a great deal about the origins and development of that culture, where it originated and some of its history. Of course, much is diluted and altered over the years, but if you read it carefully, you can see the ancient values. The myths in this book are split into six sections, based on the area of origin. They are from Ireland, Brittany, Cornwall and the Isle of Man, Scotland, Wales and Arthurian legends. These areas all share a common cultural heritage, that of the Celts, yet you can see some differences. Like the ancient myths from other areas of the world, these myths feature dragons, giants, wizards, witches, heroes fighting great battles, the underworld of the dead, love and marriage, forest and sea monsters, kings and queens. If you are interested in the ancient myths and legends of the Celtic peoples whose historical legacy is in the area of the British Isles, then this is a book that will fascinate you.

Read-Aloud Celtic Myths and Legends

I have spent much time looking for a book that would translate the Celtic Myths for children. I am a teacher of Pagan children. This book puts the history of the Celts into language much more easily understood by the children. I plan to use it to lay out a curriculmn for our study of Celts. The book allows me to combine religion and history. The book itself is printed in large enough letters to make reading easy.
