Let’s talk about children’s books this month.

A picture book for the little ones in your life is Happy St.

Patrick’s Day by Aimée Chapman, Penny Worms, and Kylie

Hamley with illustrations by Nanette Regan. It will intro-

duce children to the world of legends and faerie folk with

shiny objects they can touch imbedded in the book. What

does happen when you find a leprechaun?

For the eight-11 year-olds is the fantasy The Storm

Keeper’s Island by Catherine Doyle. The island of

Arronmore chooses a new Storm Keeper each generation to

command its power and protect its magic. Fionn’s grandfa-

ther has held the job for many years, but he is ready to hand

it off to another. Who among the island’s most powerful

families will take over and hold off the dark magic that

threatens their lives?

Begone the Raggedy Witches by Celine Kiernan is Book

1 of the Wild Magic Trilogy fantasy series. Aimed at 11-13

year-olds, this book tells the story of raggedy witches who

carry off Mup’s father on the night their Aunty dies. Mup

and her mother and her little brother enter the world of

magic to save him from the evil witch who enforces her laws

with terror and cruelty.

Love & Luck by Jenna Evans Welch offers teens a story

about Addie, a broken-hearted 16 year-old girl, and her

brother Ian. They arrive in Ireland for their aunt’s destina-

tion wedding and tour the countryside, making unscheduled

stops and attending a major music festival. As well as work-

ing on healing her heartbreak, she also must heal the frac-

tured relationship between her and Ian. For more reading suggestions, check out padraicpearse-

where our annual Club trip would be taking us this year.

ing to the Hudson Valley, New York, and the Tara Mansion

ly, as people hurriedly wrote out their deposit checks and
