7. The rainbow is also there, bridging folklore + literary whimsy. The daughters of the Rainbow Dwarf (who guards the gold at rainbow’s end) are the 7 Rainbow Fairies, responsible for all colours in Fairyland, painting with dandelion brushes! 🌈 🧚‍♀️ @UofGFantasy @IRSCL_News

4. There are a number of astronomical references, from “his Beaming Majesty, the Moon”, to the Milky Way (complete with milk!), the rather irksome King of Mars, and a cheeky comet, who eventually bursts Bobbie’s bubble. 🌓 💫 ☄️

Now we’ve all calmed down, I’ve shown my 6yo these Greek educational cartoons by Spyros Ornerakis, which were used a lot when I was in primary school to teach little ones what to do. The #Earthquake is personified as a grumpy giant and children are shown as calm and in control.

Fantasy author @henryhneff has used both sides of Cúchulain’s character to create his multi-layered teenage hero, Max MacDaniels, the “Hound of Rowan”.

In Silver on the Tree, while time-traveling to the Roman period, Merriman, is addressed as “the Druid” by a centurion, and says:
“We have some skill with stone, here, and none can match our great stone circles, with their homage to the Light.” @FolkloreThurs #FolkloreThursday
