Ulchabháin Óga (Owl Babies)

Istigh i gcoill, tá trí ulchabhán óga ina suí i gcrann, Sorcha, Peadar agus Dónall agus iad ag smaoineamh is ag feitheamh go dtiocfaidh Mamaí Ulchabhán abhaile.

One night in the wood, Mummy Owl flies off hunting. Her three little owl babies are left behind, waiting in their cosy tree. Darkness gathers and the owls begin to worry. Will Mummy ever come back? But they needn’t be afraid. Of course she will. Now in a Gaelic edition, this is one of the best bedtime books ever written, with lovely pictures and a soothing message. Little readers: you’ll adore this calming story, full of the magic of the night.
