    Very cute little read. You can tell the author is Irish because he writes like he talks. It really adds a great bit of authenticity to the stories.

    The Bee, the Harp, the Mouse, and the Bum-Clock - It's Jack and the Beanstalk's beginning with Rumplestiltskin's ending.The Sprightly Tailor - Somewhat humorous, but mostly WTF?.Conal and Donal and Taig - A rather funny (and clever) pissing match.The Black Horse - I have no idea what was going on here.The Field of Boliauns - A trickster tale of the leprechaun. Cute and amusing.Hudden and Dudden and Donald O'Neary - A clever and lucky man tricks the enemies that want him dead.The Old Hag's Long Leather Bag - Similar vein as The Talking Eggs, but not as good and ridiculously repetitive. The Giant's Stairs - Meh.Overall, it was a decent book, but the editor translated far too few Irishisms for this to be enjoyable by most English-speaking children.
