Most people have heard of the Celts--the elusive, ancient tribal people who resided in present-day England, Ireland, Scotland and France. Paradoxically characterized as both barbaric and innocent, the Celts appeal to the modern world as a symbol of a bygone era, a world destroyed by the ambition of empire and the spread of Christianity throughout Western Europe. Despite the pervasive cultural and literary influence of the Celts, shockingly little is known of their way of life and beliefs, because very few records of their stories exist. In this book, for the first time, Philip Freeman brings together the best stories of Celtic mythology.

Everyone today knows about the gods and heroes of the ancient Greeks, such as Zeus, Hera, and Hercules, but how many people have heard of the Gaulish god Lugus or the magical Welsh queen Rhiannon or the great Irish warrior C Chulainn? We still thrill to the story of the Trojan War, but the epic battles of the Irish T in B Cuailgne are known only to a few. And yet those who have read the stories of Celtic myth and legend-among them writers like J. R. R. Tolkien and C. S. Lewis-have been deeply moved and influenced by these amazing tales, for there is nothing in the world quite like them. In these stories a mysterious and invisible realm of gods and spirits exists alongside and sometimes crosses over into our own human world; fierce women warriors battle with kings and heroes, and even the rules of time and space can be suspended. Captured in vivid prose these shadowy figures-gods, goddesses, and heroes-come to life for the modern reader.

Great value, very little eye irritation at all
Color: White, Size: 6 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: Baby
I love higher priced mineral sunscreens but can’t always afford to buy them. This is non white casting and easy to spread and hasn’t irritated my daughter’s or my sensitive skin. It doesn’t get into eyes, but I would still be careful about applying too close to eyes since it lasts and can irritate eyes unless washed off completely. Compared to other mineral sunscreens from major brands, though, eye irritation is minimal. Does leave a pretty sheen on skin.

Great use, no burn. Lasts in the water
Color: White, Size: 6 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: Baby
Easy to apply! Does leave the white residue look if not rubbed in all the way, but this is effective for sun protection and burn control. Longevity of product remains. No break outs.

Feel the burn - not!
Color: White, Size: 6 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: Baby
This is by far a more natural choice for UV protection. Sure, your tattoos might take on a slightly bluish tint beneath a layer of zinc oxide, but guess what? Your ink isn’t getting destroyed by the sun. Another great thing — this spray doesn’t contain all those hard-to-pronounce, questionable chemicals you see in a lot of other products. Instead, it relies on mineral zinc oxide, a safe and effective ingredient. Safe enough? Realize that zinc is recognized as part of the US Recommended Dietary Allowance. With that, I think you can trust it to protect your skin. Oh, and your kid's skin too.
