If you spy a fair mermaid combing her hair whilst sitting upon a rock, look away, as that could be bad luck indeed. And legend has it that just one encounter with the silver-tongued fairy known as the Charmer may leave a person lovesick and heartbroken. This gorgeous book offers illuminating introductions to fifteen remarkable fairies, the lesser-known heroes and villains of Irish folklore, from tiny leprechauns to enormous giants, trickster spirits to slippery shape-shifters. Dramatically lit illustrations, stories inspired by tales from the Irish National Folklore Collection, and a look at each fae's traits and origins make this a keepsake collection and a gift to be treasured.\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Síne Quinn\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Candlewick Press (MA)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublished:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2\/4\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 80\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.15 lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 11\" H x 8\" L x 0.6\" W\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9781536240719\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Uncle Jon's Book Factory","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47023407857818,"sku":"9781536240719","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0707\/3015\/4138\/files\/9781536240719_c8a36f35-c75a-49c2-b552-b560789025ac.jpg?v=1774721919","url":"https:\/\/unclejonsbookfactory.com\/products\/the-faerie-isle-tales-and-traditions-of-irelands-forgotten-folklore-s-ne-quinn-hardcover","provider":"Uncle Jon's Book Factory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
