About this episode

I am so excited to bring this one to you guys! This is a story that feels as old as Ireland himself and tells the tale of the creation of one of Ireland's most striking and beautiful places, the Giant's Causeway, in County Antrim. The story is full of wonderful quirks and mischievous deeds and is sure to be a favourite for little ears far and near.
