Patrick's Dream
A skilled re-telling of the Patrick myth; his capture, escape and return to Ireland, and his tournament of magic against the Druids would provide a sufficiently fascinating story. This account is further enriched by the beauty of the surrounding illustrations. Each page resembles an expanse of intricately embroidered tapestry, bordered with labyrinths of Celtic knotwork, within which the struggle between pagan and Christian magic is enacted. This book is a visual delight which children will want to touch and explore.
