A big thank you to everyone who participated in this week's giveaway for a signed copy of "The Selkie Spell", a wonderful book by Sophie Moss.
I really enjoyed reading everyone's comments and learning about all the creatures and characters of Irish folklore you find intriguing.

And a really big thank you to Sohpie Moss for her fantastic post about Irish Folklore and Fairytales, and for graciously providing a signed copy of her book for our lucky winner......
