BOOK CLUB: Breogan and Hercules

More and more stories have been included in our book clubs through these last months. Isn´t it amazing how Coruña is so strongly connected to the English world? In our latest session we visited the Tower of Hercules and  learned about two foundational legends of our town: one regarding Breogan, the mythical Celtic chieftain who founded Brigantia, and the other one related to Hercules, the hero wo defeated Geryon and buried his head under the tower. Legends and memorials are precisely our topics of this month. That´s why we have read two inspirational stories: "Charlie and the Great Fire of London" (about the Monument which commemorates the devastating fire in London in 1666) and "Arthur and the sword in the stone" (revisiting the legend of King Arthur). Don´t you think that legends are really exciting?

Here is a memory of our unforgettable afternoon and remember that Lilí, our favourite librarian, is waiting for you with a great selection of books. Thank you, Lilí!
