Irish Independence and The Orphans

By Bella Wong

Four orphans. One war. Zero safety nets.

During the chaos of the 1916 Easter Rising, Maura, Eoin, Seamus, and Niamh are forced from an abusive orphanage into the unpredictable streets of Dublin. With war raging around them, they must depend on one another to survive - and to find hope in a country fighting for freedom.

Irish Independence and The Orphans is a moving, character-driven novel written by Bella Wong at just 12 years old. Inspired by true events and deep research into Irish history, this is a story of friendship, courage, loyalty, and growing up too fast in a world torn by war.

Suitable for readers aged 10-14, this debut novel is a heartfelt testament to the power of resilience and the spirit of youth.
