The Return of the Light: Twelve Tales from Around the World for the Winter Solstice | Carolyn McVickar Edwards

bailed

I‘m sorry. I just can‘t bring myself to read another sentence. A lot was promised, none of it was delivered.

GingerAntics Of the 12 stories, only 6 can be readily found independent of the book in any form. Of those 6, three are either misnamed or given the wrong location, and a fourth is heavily changed, to the point of being a different story. The final story is part of Epiphany celebrations in Italy and nothing new to Catholic school pupils who had creative religion teachers. 6d

GingerAntics The “solstice” songs at the end are Christmas carols she changed some of the words to. The activities are slightly augmented Christmas traditions from around the world. She has sources, but even those don‘t come up for half the stories, so she‘s either changed them beyond recognition or combined multiple stories. 6d

kspenmoll Great review! 5d

The Return of the Light: Twelve Tales from Around the World for the Winter Solstice | Carolyn McVickar Edwards

Okay, so no part of this paragraph makes any sense. She has velvet in her ears? I tried looking up the original story… IT DOES NOT EXIST! Is she just making this up (poorly) as she goes? That certainly explains a lot.

Dilara 😂 😂 It's got to be some kind of purple prose spoof! 1w

GingerAntics @Dilara that is a perfect description! I haven‘t read a word of this book since then. I‘m thinking it may be time to just cut this one loose. A lot of people love this book; I‘m just not one of them. 7d

Dilara @GingerAntics Yes, some books are just not worth our time 😃 6d
