Baysprites

Baysprites small creatures akin to elves and leprechauns stand just three inches tall-about the size of a person's thumb. Originating from Ireland one clan of baysprites left their homeland during the Great Hunger. In 1846 around one hundred baysprites crossed the Atlantic stowing away on a ship bound for Baltimore. They eventually established colonies along the northern shore of the Chesapeake Bay. <br>This enchanting tale narrated by a grandmother to her grandchildren follows a baysprite colony in the 21st century as they search for a neighbouring colony that has missed their annual contact. The colony's storyteller accompanied by an escort embarks on a perilous weeklong journey through human territory to locate the lost colony encountering unexpected dangers and astonishing revelations along the way.
