The Scottish Fairy Book
Elizabeth Wilson Grierson and Morris Meredith Williams
Thomas the Rhymer kissed the Fairy Queen and lost seven years. Grierson's gathering of Scotland's tales sets him beside Gold-Tree and Silver-Tree, Whippety-Stourie, the fearsome Red-Etin, and the seal catcher who met the merman face to face. Border magic, told plain and eerie. Best read where the wind can hear you. Please note: this is the text of the story only. It has no pictures, so it is meant for a grown-up to read aloud rather than for a child to read alone. The illustrated experience of this story is the audiobook edition on Littletone.
