Tales of Enchantment

From the earliest times of storytelling, magic has been a part of the most thrilling of taleswhen miracles transport heroes and transform the outcome of the story itself. In fact, the power of magic is at work whenever a story is told: the magician is the teller of the tale, allowing story, teller, and listener to become one. Leprechauns, dwarfs, shape-shifters, and the power of dreamsyou'll meet them all, and more in these nine tales, including: "The Seven Stars" (Cherokee Nation), "Red Cap and the Miser" (Ireland), "The Birds of All the World" (Spain), and "The Silver Bell" (Denmark).
