Once Upon an Island

This beautifully-illustrated book transports you to the enchanted island of wizards and witches (of both white witchcraft and dark magic), potions and spells, fairies, mermaids and superstitions. There are many characters and creatures to discover as the tales unfold.

Once Upon an Island explores the historical and cultural traditions behind the origin of each tale. The folklore of Guernsey allows modern-day islanders to discover how our ancestors felt about the natural world.
