What makes a lake disappear?
In The Vanishing Lake, young Meara notices that Lake Loughareema is sometimes sparkling and full--and other times completely gone. She is determined to discover why.
Her granddad offers plenty of explanations: mermaids, giants, and even narwhals. But Meara wants real answers. She searches under pebbles, climbs hills, and explores every corner of the island, determined to solve the mystery for herself.
As Meara investigates one of Ireland's most fascinating natural wonders, she learns that the natural world can be just as magical as the stories we tell about it.
From award-winning author-illustrator Paddy Donnelly comes a captivating picture book celebrating curiosity, perseverance, scientific discovery, and the special bond between grandparent and grandchild.
