The Fog Catcher's Daughter, Paperback / softback Book

The Fog Catcher's Daughter Paperback / softback

Illustrated by Alan Marks

Paperback / softback

Description

A brave young girl rows out to meet her destiny in a lavishly illustrated original tale steeped in fairy lore, from a traditional Irish storyteller. A daughter embarks on a perilous journey to rescue her father in this beautiful, eerie and timeless original folktale.

Eily and her father live in Ireland, three fields from the sea, within sight of the enchanted isle of Lisnashee.

The fairy folk who live there cause mischief and harm to any who trespass, but once a year at Midsummer, Eily’s father, the Fog Catcher, rows out to collect magic from the fog around the island.

His sole protection is a charm tucked in his pocket, and when Eily finds the lost charm in a hedgerow after he departs, she knows at once what she must do.

Haunting watercolour paintings evoke the beauty of the Irish coastline in an imaginative coming-of-age tale about honouring the past and taking courage with an open heart.
