Some had their beginnings here, growing in the telling until they were as big as Norfolk's skies. Others were brought here by travellers from far away - even Viking raiders long ago. Stories that in time would change to suit our Norfolk ways, for as everyone knows - we do different! This is a collection of tales reworked and rewritten by Dave Tonge so that children might learn something of this most special county: its places and people, its strange and wondrous dialect. In this collection of stories, each introduced with snippets of local history, we journey to a place where fact, fiction, truth and lies become as one.
