On the day she is born, Brigid receives a brilliant blue cloak from a mysterious Druid. Years later, the young girl still wears the beloved cloak, while she tends her sheep. Is it her imagination that suddenly takes her to an unfamiliar land? Or is it something far greater that leads Brigid to a crowded inn, in a town called Bethlehem?
Milligan's eloquently told story about one of Ireland's most beloved saints is a moving tale of compassion and wonder. Beautifully illustrated by Helen Cann, "Brigid's Cloak" sparkles with the timelessness of legend and the transcending power of faith.
