Giant's Causeway

Finn McCool was an Irish Giant who was feared all over the land. Finn thought he was the biggest and best of all the Giant's in the world. When he heard that he had a rival in Scotland, called Benandonner, he was furious.

He challenged Benandonner to a battle, but Benondonner couldn't swim and wasn't that interested in making a trip to Ireland.

This made Finn even more angry and he decided to build a causeway between Ireland and Scotland. The causeway stretched from North Antrim to Staffa.

When Benandonner heard this he decided to take up the challenge and head to Ireland. As Benandonner appeared over the horizon, Finn McCool soon realised in horror that he had challenged a much bigger rival. He was so scared he ran home to his wife Oonagh.

'Oonagh, what am I going to do', he said after explaining the situation to her. Quickly realising what was happening, Oonagh disguised Finn as a baby and made him curl up in an enormous cradle.

Benandonner banged on the door and demanded to know where Finn McCool was. Oonagh said, 'Hush!, you'll wake the baby. I don't know where Finn is at the moment. I'm sure he will be back soon'.

When Benandonner saw Finn's baby, he took fright at the size it's father would be and fled back to Scotland tearing up the causeway as he went.
