Amy Jeffs Books

This is the children’s edition of Amy Jeffs’ Storyland, which is a rich collection of myths and legends from Britain. Children in Key Stage 2 are likely to be familiar with stories from Greek mythology or Roman legends, but this short story collection looks closer to home for the myths and legends of Britain – including stories of giants, dragons and wizards.

It’s interesting to ponder and discuss how people from the past understood the world around them through stories. A good challenge for readers looking to learn about Britain’s literary heritage or an entertaining read for those who love fantasy and mythology, the stories are well-written and have been made accessible for children, with illustrations bringing them to life.
