Folk tales inspired by geology, archaeology and history

From caverns deep underground to sky-high mountains, the rocks and stones all around us are ancient. Greedy oni lurk in a cave in Japan; a stonecutter becomes a mountain; and a story of romance, revenge and tragedy plays out on the face of a plate. Revealing hidden fossils, gemstones, folklore and secrets, storyteller Jenny Moon’s tales are interwoven with interesting facts and geological observations that will catch the imagination of readers young and old, making this more than just a book of stories.

JENNY MOON is a professional storyteller and author. Her most recent book was ‘Using Story in higher education and professional development’ and she runs workshops on storytelling in educational contexts. She is the Ambassador for the Jurassic Coast Trust which means she is considerably involved in events concerning rock and stone, fossils and earth history. She lives in Lympstone, Devon.
