It's a story of destiny, acceptance, integrity and injustice, with a heart-warming ending. 'Anna McLoon' is a Celtic story from modern times. It demonstrates the rhythms of the world, through the story of Ireland's last travelling storyteller, and addresses issues of life and death.This book is suitable for Year 6 (age 12) and older, in the Steiner-Waldorf curriculum.
