personal response: I enjoyed the stories in this book, but I actually didn't care for the artwork. It was nice to read some traditional stories from the places that my ancestors are from. Before reading this I don't think I had even thought to look into any celtic folklore. I find it interesting that these stories are similar to many others from other cultures. Makes me wonder which came first and if they somehow influenced each other many years ago.
