800 aastat vanad legendid muidugi ei saagi meie mõistes väga loogilised olla, aga ikka tahaks küsida, et miks kõik need inimesed siin lugudes nii... idiootlikult käitusid. Kalevipoeg oli nendega võrreldes ikka täitsa tark, tubli ja mõõdukas mees, kes tegi elus ainult üle keskmise häid otsuseid.

Llyfryn bach gwych, yn crynhoi rhai o'r storiau mwyaf hudol welodd y byd erioed!

Os y'ch chi fel o'n ni, ddim cweit yn deall fy Mranwen's o'm Bendigeidfran's, dyma'r llyfr i chi - crynodeb gwych, hawdd ei ddarllen o rai o brif storiau'r (dim gobaith cael dau ddot ar yr i, nagoes??!!) Mabinogi.

A great little book giving a precised version of some of the greatest mythical stories ever told - good enough (and short enough!) to persevere with it through Google translate if you're not fluent in Welsh!

Llyfr hyfryd efo lliwiau ardderchog yn dweud stori'r Mabinogi. Fel rhan o'r diwylliant Cymru, mae'r storïau'n rhyfedd a'r eirfa'n eithaf anodd yn fy marn, ond dw i'n falch o ddarllen y chwedlau o'r diwedd.

Lovely illustrations. The stories are a bit incoherent. But so are most old stories.
