Publisher's Synopsis
For centuries, the haunting Herlethingi have roamed throughout Britain. Some say they are not real, but this is the story of how it all began with a king's mistake. Children will be captivated by this retelling of a folktale about how a king's visit to Elfland led his men to become an army of undead mounted vagrants. Although it begins with a simplified excerpt from a spooky historical text, the majority of the story is more mysterious than frightening. As the Welsh language continues to grow in popularity with the young generation, this bilingual reader will provide children with a legend they can share with all their friends.
