We go way back to old Japan in this famous story of a poor young man who saves a fish. Japan is surrounded by water, so much of their folklore comes from the sea.
Japanese mermaids are called Ningyo, and they are not like European mermaids at all! Thankfully, our hero catches the Dragon king's daughter and sets her free. That's got to be worth a reward, right?
You can find out lots more about Japanese folklore in this wonderful book HERE.

Episode 17 - Bridget and the Leprechaun
Saison 5 · Épisode 16
samedi 10 août 2024 • Durée 22:37
This episode we travel to Ireland to learn about a famous Irish fairy - the Leprechaun. Young Bridget decides it's easier to catch a leprechaun and get his gold than working hard for what you want. But fooling a fairy is not that easy!
Leprechauns have existed in Irish mythology for hundreds, maybe thousands of years! Many believe they are descended from the old Irish gods, or are types of Fae or fairy.
They can grant wishes. bring you luck and even make you very rich! But catching a Leprechaun is very hard - they are full of trickery and have the power to disappear if you take your eye off them.
You can learn more about Leprechauns in this wonderful book HERE.

Episode 5 - The Faerie Thorn
Saison 1 · Épisode 5

Episode 5 – The Faerie Thorn
Welcome to the next episode of Dragonfly Tales, a story podcast for children of all ages. This episode is a tale from Northern Ireland about the mystical and magical Faerie Thorn tree. I first heard the wonderful Liz Weir MBE tell a version of this at the Glens of Antrim Story Festival.Here is an extract from Jane Talbot’s wonderfully dark collection of fairy tales, The Faerie Thorn:
‘Now, if you don’t know about faerie thorns, you should. The Big People call these trees hawthorns, and in May you can see them scattering snow-blossoms in every direction. The Big People know that the Little People live in the roots of these trees, so the wisest Big People make sure that the faerie thorns are left well alone.
Here are the instructions for making Leo’s fairy tree:
You will need:
· A big sheet of blank paper and a pencil
· Some prittstick or gloopy glue
· Some twigs and branches
· Lots of different sized leaves
· Some little gems or shiny buttons
· And some glitter
First, draw an outline of a tree in winter on your paper. Try to make your branches nice and big and do lots of them.
Next, using your glue, stick your twigs down over your outline so you have a winter tree.
Next turn your tree into a summer tree by sticking on your leaves. The more leaves you add the fuller your tree will look.
You can also add little flowers to your tree too – to make it more spring like.
Finally, to make it a fairy tree, stick some gems or buttons onto your tree and then shake over some glitter. And now you have a magical fairy tree!
You can find photos of Leo's tree and the REAL Faerie Thorn in our Dragonfly Tales Podcast Group.If you would like a shout out, the best thing to do is join the Dragonfly Tales story chat on Facebook.
