Folklore & Nature Books

A delicious variety of books to celebrate the natural world: fiction and non-fiction reminding us of the bigger world and the beauty of connecting with nature; outdoor living - especially exploring the countryside, wild swimming, memoirs and tales of living close to nature; myths, legends, natural history and folklore - to reconnect us with our ancestry and learn about other cultural backgrounds too; and of course a mystical sprinkle of magic.

As we are in Wales we also sell books written in Wales, about Wales and Welsh folklore, and/or by Welsh authors/illustrators; this inevitably includes local authors/illustrators.

Some of our online bookshelves - there are many more here!
