Published in fall 2007 by the University of North Carolina Press, this collection of fourteen stories features some unusual giants and witches, an ogre who refuses to pick up after himself, and one winsome hero, Molly Whuppie. These stories, many of them based on tales collected in Eastern Kentucky by folklorist Leonard Roberts, are not only adventures, but ventures deep into Appalachian consciousness and culture.
