Recenzijas

a companion publication to the fantastic Blazing A Trail vivid portraits by Graham Corcoran Sarah Webbs accessible prose delivers key and fun facts. This title is a great addition to school bookshelves with lots of scope for further reading and project-based work discover be inspired * InTouch Magazine * incredible true-life stories concise one-page biographies of well-known and lesser-known figures from all walks of Irish history and contemporary life, from revolutionaries like Pįdraig Pearse and Elizabeth OFarrell to rock-stars like Bono and Hozier. However, it is the lesser-known stories - like that of American Civil War soldier Albert DJ Cashier and adventurer Madam Dragonfly - that really sing. Graham Corcorans chiselled portraits dominate suggestive background landscapes, which use a few key details to support Webbs pithy prose  * Irish Times * amazing lives that will inspire young dreamers provides plenty of inspiration for the countrys next generation of movers and shakers * Evening Echo *
