Edition DescriptionTeacher's edition
SynopsisSelkies, fairies, gnomes, hill folk, river sprites--do you believe in them? Perhaps among the flowers, beside a mountain, or near deep waters you've caught a glimpse, once or twice, of what you thought might be the silvery shadow of a dwarf, or a hint of a fairy's wing, or the tail of the water horse. Or was it just the odd light of dusk or dawn playing tricks? As Lise Lunge-Larsen's magical, timeless stories reveal and Beth Krommes's enchanting scratchboard illustrations capture, the hidden folk are there, all right: you just have to know where--and how--to look.

  • My Favorite Illustrator

    Beth Krommes' illustrations are perfect for this fascinating collection of stories about Selkies, Water Horses, Gnomes, Elves, Fairies and other Secret Beings that might help, or perhaps harm, people. The folklore collected here is unusual, and feels like a passing-along of tips for proper behavior to avoid trouble with the Hidden Folk.
