Tír na nÓg cover

Niamh lives in the magical land of Tír na nÓg, where no one ever grows old or feels sad. 

She invites Oisín to join her and they are happy until he misses his home in the human world.

When sadness strikes, Niamh learns the strength and beauty of
the human heart.

A beautiful retelling of a beloved Irish legend.

Two of O'Brien's stars, Erika McGann and Conor Busuttil, have come together to create this lovely new book. We all know the story of Oisin and Tir na nÓg - but this is Niamh and Tir na nÓg, the first version I've ever seen from Niamh's point of view, which feels like such an obvious oversight! Conor's artwork is amazing, slightly cartoony in the best way and full of detail. I've loved his other books but this might be his best yet! I'm sure I'm missing loads, but I do love the carving on the stone pillar - vibrant and new when Niamh comes for Oisin, overgrown and rubbed down when he returns. This is a fabulous addition to O'Brien's list of folklore inspired titles, and I can't wait to see what else this partnership comes up with.
