About this title

Synopsis

Twenty-four legends of myth, magic, and heroism — the complete collection in one volume.

Long before Ukraine was a country in the headlines, it was a land of legends: forest spirits and fire-eyed monsters, Cossack heroes and god-given swords, mountains born from giants and a capital city founded by four siblings. Legends of Ukraine brings all 24 tales together in a single illustrated treasury — a complete journey through the folklore of Eastern Europe.

What you'll discover inside:

The Mavkas, ethereal guardians of the Carpathian forests.
Ilya Muromets, the bedridden boy who rose to become a giant hero — and the three-headed dragon he faced.
The Lion of Lviv, a stone statue that came alive to save its city.
The birth of the Carpathian Mountains, the lost golden city, and Bear Mountain rising from the sea.
The founding of Kyiv by Kiy, Shchek, Khoriv, and their sister Lybed.
Origin myths of the stars, the Moon, and the salt of the sea — and wise parables of fate, kindness, and true happiness.

Spanning heroic epics, creation myths, and gentle fables, this is folklore with a real sense of place — naming the very mountains, rivers, and cities you can still visit today.

A treasury for the whole family

Written for readers 8 and up and a pleasure to read aloud, Legends of Ukraine is a keepsake for heritage families, a gateway for young mythology fans, and a window into one of Europe's richest and least-known story traditions.

Bring 24 timeless legends home today.
