Oral tales always suffer a bit when translated to text, in my opinion. These stories, while charming enough, fall into that pattern. ( )

A magical collection of short stories that all have to do with plants in one way or another. The author re-wrote the old folk tales and for the most part I think she did a good job. There were a few that ended abruptly, but I'm sure that those particular tales were sparse to begin with. ( )

The title says it all. This book contains several short stories of folk tales with links to plants. Some of these tales I knew, most of them I did not. A few of the stories had the author's interpretation from the traditional versions I am familiar with. Many of these tales reminded me of Grimm's fairy tales; a stark reminder that fairy tales aren't always happy endings. ( )

Botanical Folk Tales of Britain and Ireland is a charming collection of plant-related folk tales organized according to the eight-fold wheel of the year. Some of the stories seem to be only tangentially connected to plants, and many of the stories I have read before in some form in other collections. However, as a whole the stories are very well-written and well put together. I love the idea of a plant-centered collection of tales and I also appreciate the theme of maintaining a good relationship with the land, a theme that keeps reappearing throughout this collection. I think this book would be best read slowly or by dipping into it on occasion, rather than straight through. I would recommend it if you're interested in this sort of thing. ( )
