Seasonal Folklore Issue 3: Autumn, 2026
Epub ebook, 30 pages, with 12 B&W illustrations.

A collection of Scottish Autumn stories relishing the ripeness of nature in the season.
Collected and illustrated by Eileen Budd.

Beautifully illustrated with the plants, animals and spirits of Autumn, these short stories remind us of our roots in the natural world and the enduring connection between the land and its legends.

In the Autumn collection, discover thirteen stories, including:
• The struggle between Nuckaleavee and the Sea Mither, who wields the power of the storms.
• Stories of shapeshifting selkies and how they change mortal lives for good and ill.
• And the rich traditions of Samhuinn, bonfires and harvest.
• Alongside the folk stories of autumnal rowan, brambles, thistles and apples.
And more Scots Saws (proverbs and sayings).

Seasonal Folklore by Eileen Budd is a collection of Scottish stories, passed down through her family, and shared with you each season, to mark the cycles of nature.

In partnership with St Andrews Botanic Garden.

An audiobook version, narrated by Eileen Budd, is also available to download from Wide Open Sea.
