Overview

""This is a fine book, a rare book, full of fun and fantasy; rainbows, big winds, wee flowers, juicy Irish humor, and the unpretending humor of life. . . . To read the book is like having a holiday in fairyland."" (Henry van Dyke) To read the two long and enchanting stories in this book-The Night of the Big Wind and Coggelty-Curry-and to look at Robert Lawson's equally enchanting pictures which are unique, and in complete harmony with Arthur Mason's text, is to share with author and artist the close kinship of the elusive Wee Men. The first story is the tale of what happened the night of the Big Wind, when the thatched roof of old Danny O'Fay's cottage was stripped completely and the Wee Men were blown out of Ballywooden. Coggelty-Curry tells of another adventurous night when the Wee Men sailed in their ships to get back the fairy bagpipes stolen by the rascally jackdaw. The Wee Men of Ballywooden was first published in 1930.
