Pagan Portals - Stories for the Songs of the Year

'What a brilliant collection of stories. Such a joy to read. Like a cosy blanket I covered myself in each character, weaving towards the seasons. Attila the Bun and half a tail Meg are perfect partners throughout. Shadows from the Dream master himself beautifully woven into a birthday celebration. Ancestors and 'death in a nut' held me glued to a wisdom soaked adaption of the old tale with a herb wife and love owning all! This is a WINNER. Cannot wait to continue...' Jess Smith, author, traditional storyteller and Scottish travellerStories for the Songs of the Year is a collection of new children's stories which celebrate the festivals and seasons. The tales follow the adventures of Attila and Meg, a know-it-all rabbit and a cat with half a tail, who generally cause chaos and mischief for Angus Óg and which introduce Celtic Gods and some of the ideas central to Celtic beliefs in an age-appropriate way. The stories will also appeal to pre-teens who are able to read for themselves and who may be ready to begin to explore their own spiritual paths. Tinker's book also includes a short, factual essay written for parents, covering many practical matters, which is both helpful and informative for parents wishing to explore their own Pagan paths with their children.
