You can expect rain if rooks sit in rows on fences, cure toothache with a mole's paw, find water with a hazel branch: Ruth Binney collects such old sayings, wisdom and traditional remedies. In this compilation she explores how we relate to plants and animals and how we tell tales about their origins and behaviour. The book draws together myths, legends and lore about the healing properties of animals and plants, predictions and superstitions, and the flora and fauna of mythology.
