from Stories from the Ballads, Told to the Children · host Mary Esther Miller MacGregor
Gather round, children, for a magical journey awaits you! In this enchanting collection, I share the tales that have captivated hearts for centuries. Long ago, wandering minstrels roamed the hills and valleys, their songs echoing from courts to cottages, captivating both nobles and common folk alike. With their harps in hand, these storytellers spun enchanting ballads of fairies flitting over mountains, as well as stirring songs of valor and strife. Their melodies painted vivid pictures of joy and sorrow, love and loss, weaving a rich tapestry of life. It is from the ancient tomes that I discovered these timeless stories, and perhaps, after listening, youll be inspired to seek out these treasures yourself, uncovering even more tales of wonder and adventure. - Summary by Mary Macgregor
