A Children's Atlas of Ireland

From hedgerows to haunted houses, bog bodies to big battles, discover Ireland as you've never seen it before. This atlas gives a flavour of all things Irish, from the natural world to man-made feats. Encompassing history, geography and cultural subjects, each spread introduces a variety of facts through bright illustrations and warm humour. Do you know what Ireland’s tiniest mammal is? Or where to find an enormous fin whale? Climb mountains full of eagles and insects, and see toads and kingfishers in our lakes and rivers. Have you heard of the Hag who turns people to stone? Or the fierce pirate Gráinne? Spot Irish werewolves and the phantom island of Hy-Brasil, mysterious standing stones and fairy forts. What is a flying boat? Would you ever eat a slippery eel or seaweed pudding? Ride the railway or a canal boat across the country to learn about incredible inventions, huge castles and deep, dark caves and tunnels. From high mountains to haunted houses, bog bodies to big battles, discover Ireland as you’ve never seen it before. Do you know what Ireland’s tiniest mammal is?
