Book Review – Children of Croke Park
This is a very good book which we both enjoyed. The main 3 boys in the book were Perry, Jerry and Billy. Reading about them gave us a very good understanding of their families and the places that they lived in. Some of the descriptions in the book were really good, because we could use our imaginations to see what things looked like and smelled like. We would not have been able to do this without all the details read more…

Léirmheas Leabhar – An Puifín Beag agus an Ubh
Léigh mé an leabhar seo le rang a ceathair i nGaelscoil Mhachan, Corcaigh. Is leabhar álainn é, scéal gleoite, pictiúirí áille agus Gaeilge deas na Mumhan! Is annamh a fhaighim leabhar le Gaeilge na Mumhan. Cheap na páistí go raibh an leabhar oiriúnach do rang a dó nó rang a haon. Cheap siad go raibh an iomarca scríobh ar na leathanaigh le haghaidh naíonáin. read more…
