Day 2 of #IrishBookWeek is to share an Irish language book. I’m cheating a bit here by sharing from a book that has some Irish language- the Church of Ireland Hymnal. And as it’s Sunday, I thought I would include this offering by the great Sean O’Riada #Irishbookaday

OK so late to the party on both the book and the author but loved Liz Nugent's 'Strange Sally Diamond' now just to read her back catalogue....

Kieran McNally! A lovely guy who has written about the time Yeats spent living in Howth. For the incredible cover, Katie Tooke burned each match by hand to create the image.

Today's #IrishBookADay prompt is to share an Irish illustrator whose work you enjoy.
While there are many, one of our favourites has to be @brianfitzer
! His illustrations are always intricate, whimsical, but mostly importantly *extremely* fun

It's #IrishBookWeek! Today's #IrishBookADay prompt: What's your favourite Irish children's book of 2024?

Only one?!😬 I'm going to go with Síne Quinn & Dermot Flynn's The Faerie Isle because I adore the illustrations and the stories go deeper than most Irish myths kids books.

It's #IrishBookWeek! Today's #IrishBookADay prompt: What is your next Irish Read?

Judging by sales, for many it will be the new Niall Williams. For me, it is Fia and the Last Snow Deer, a story in verse by Eilish Fisher with stunning illustrations by Dermot Flynn.
