J. Ford.This book contains many references to fairies. As to whether there are really any fairies or not, is a difficult question.

So, if ever you are near Nether Lochaber, go to the Fairy Hill, and you may hear the music your-self, but you must go on a fine day……TABLE of CONTENTSWhat the Rose did to the CypressBall-Carrier and the Bad OneHow Ball-Carrier finished his TaskThe BunyipFather GrumblerThe Story of the YaraThe Cunning HareThe Turtle and his BrideHow Geirald the Coward was PunishedHábogiHow the Little Brother set Free his Big BrothersThe Sacred Milk of KoumongoéThe Wicked WolverineThe Husband of the Rat’s DaughterThe Mermaid and the BoyPivi and KaboThe Elf MaidenHow Some Wild Animals became Tame OnesFortune and the Wood-CutterThe Enchanted HeadThe Sister of the SunThe Prince and the Three FatesThe Fox and the LappKisa the CatThe Lion and the CatWhich was the Foolishest?Asmund and SignyRübezahlStory of the King who would be Stronger than FateStory of Wali Dâd the Simple-heartedTale of a Tortoise and of a Mischievous MonkeyThe Knights of the FishWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
