"Sugar roads and sugar toes Sugarfoots and all that glows In my hand the stones will be And my imagination Will be with me..." And with that, the Sugarfoots dolls come to life! Babelle, a young African-American girl who is the appointed caretaker of the Sugarfoots, is just moments away from arriving in the town of Castlebar in the west of Ireland! The annual Roola Boola Festival is underway. Aisling is waiting patiently for them to arrive and the Sugarfoots soon discover she is nothing like they expected. As on any journey they take, the Sugarfoots are full of questions and eager to find out what folktales they can learn about and take back with them to the Sugarfoots village. The age old tale of The Knowledge of the Salmon satisfies their inquisitiveness for new cultural discoveries. In a bustling world of video mania, children as well as parents will delight in taking a break from the keyboard, while learning about the Irish culture and experiencing the joy of folklore. These stories that have been passed down for generations will intrigue young minds and bring smiles of remembrance from parents for these dubious fables of yesteryear with a fresh new twist. It will be up to them to determine if the folktale is true or not...
