Book illustrates Conor’s creative talents

FROM an early age, Conor O’Brien just loved to sketch — any time, any place, anywhere.

This love of drawing, even while he was supposed to be listening to his teachers at school, helped the 14-year Dublin student secure his first job as the illustrator of a children's book.

Conor's creative gift was first spotted by a teacher at Scoil Mhuire primary school.
