Children's writing in Ireland has radically changed in recent years. A host of new authors has emerged, along with a new confidence in children's literature. An expert on children's writing collects the very best of the past 50 years in one volume.
Beginning with current work, the book traces back to the 1940s and contains the best from authors such as Marita Conlon-McKenna, Siobhan Parkinson, Tom McCaughren, Martin Waddell, Eugene McCabe, Walter Macken, Patricia Lynch, and Eilis Dillon.
