Sinopsis

Charles Waterton (1782-1865) was an English naturalist, plantation overseer and explorer best known for his pioneering work regarding conservation. Waterton was a British Catholic, educated at Stonyhurst College. He traveled to British Guiana in 1804 to take charge of his uncle’s slave plantations near Georgetown. Between 1812 and 1824 he made four expeditions into the wilderness, reaching Brazil walking barefooted during the rainy season. His discoveries are described in his book, “Wanderings in South America.” He was a skilled taxidermist and preserved many of the animals he encountered on his expeditions, and the Waterton Collection is still displayed in a museum.

    "A dragon darkens our dells. A witch haunts our woods. Bandits roam our moors" . . . King Stromgard swept on. "In the tradition of so many monarchs, I offer my daughter's hand in marriage and half my kingdom to the prince who can rid us of these evils, restoring peace and prosperity to our realm."And so the contest in the Kingdom of Greeve begins. But Princess Margaret is not your traditional princess. Meg firmly objects to her parents' giving her away, and she certainly has no intention of remaining in the tower where she is sequestered. Instead, she sets out to win the contest herself by enlisting the help of her good friend, her loyal maid, an eager guardsman, a young wizard, and a tenacious witch. Does Meg find her distinct place in the kingdom, or is she doomed to fulfill her royal duties?Kate Coombs weaves a magical tale full of pesky princes, enchanted frogs, a beady-eyed scarf, and invisibility juice – a tale of wonder, but a story familiar to all who struggle to find their own place in the world.The Runaway Princess is a 2007 Bank Street - Best Children's Book of the Year.

    'My kind of book.' R.L. Stine, author of Goosebumps
    Sent home from school early for troublemaking, 11-year-old Conn hangs out at UCD's National Folklore Collection while his Aunt Doireann finishes up her work.
    When he spots a case marked 'hazardous', Conn just can't stop himself from lifting the lid … Inside lies the ancient skull of the Abhartach – an undead sorcerer of terrible might – and Conn has just set his spirit free.
    Can he defeat the monstrous mind-controlling Abhartach before he regains his full power?
    'Wise, funny, thrilling, and scary, Conn of the Dead is a wonderful new type of adventure. Dave Rudden is a storytelling genius.' Pádraig Kenny
