Books for children

Baby mouse and his mum set off on their walk, dancing through raindrops and splashing in puddles, then home for fairytales and cuddles. A combination of rhyme and charming, illustrations.

Marco Moonwalker by Gerry Boland, illustrated by Áine McGuinness (O’Brien; €7.99) tells the story of Marco, a bear who lives with Patrick and his mum. When Marco picks up Mum’s trombone and belts out a tune he becomes hooked on music. When he tries out the banjo with equal skill, Patrick is so impressed he organises a fab trio The three Ms — (Marco, Mum and Me). However, how long can you keep a large grizzly bear in disguise before someone rumbles? An imaginative funny read, despite losing its momentum in the last few pages. Suitable for age eight and upwards.
