Children’s books

ON THURSDAY March 3, World Book Day will be celebrated all over Ireland and Britain, with promotional events in schools, libraries and bookshops.

To encourage children to read, specially commissioned short ‘flip’ books (two stories in one book) are available for €1.50 each.

Dr Seuss on the Loose is a collection of Seuss’s hilariously eccentric verses and illustrations. A perfect introduction to the joy of books for age six upwards.
