Trasna na dTonnta sung by Irish school children.
Trasna na dTonnta is an Irish song that appears in Kapheus Water. When I asked the children St. Peter\'s Primary School in Phibsborough, Dublin if they knew the song, they spontaneously burst into song. I could barely reach my phone in time to record their singing, but you\'ll get an idea of the song by listening to them sing here. -

An bhfaca tú mo Shéamaisín? This is a song St. Peter\'s Primary School in Phibsborough, Dublin sang to me before I read to them from the Kapheus series of books. -

World Book Week School Visits
During World Book Week I try to reach as many schools in different parts of Ireland. The children love the idea of meeting an author and they have so many questions to ask. Children that initially don't care about reading become the most enthusiastic about the adventures of Kapheus and want to purchase the books. It's wonderful to see a child's face light up when they hear me read from the books. These photos were taken at schools in Galway, Cork and Dublin.

School Visits - A Thank You
School Visits are a special part of being an author. It is so much fun watching the children's reactions when I read from the Kapheus series. You could hear a pin drop in the room as I read from the pages of the books.
Thank you to all the school principals and teachers, but especially to all the wonderful children in their care.
