Customer Reviews

This Is Ireland

This is a great "vintage" looking book inside and out. My daughter (10) liked the content and I think it told her everything she expected to learn about Ireland and more. It is not too much information. I thought maybe the illustrations would be too dull, but they kept her interest. We also bought This is Rome. The books are good for older children because they are not too grown up and not too childish.

Sasek it's always a treat

I am a huge fan of Sasek so I like every book he's wrote and illsutrated. This one abut Ireland is nice and funny and "greener". As I think that Sasek is one of the best children illustrator I suggest this one and even the other ones. My daughter loves it and she learns many informations reading it.

Happy St. Patrick's Day

Great book for my grandchildren for St. Pat's Day. Well written, good pics and terrific information about Ireland.
