Fintan Cooper –
Emer’s debut is a charming, poem-like tale, full of rhythm, alliteration, and playful wildlife. It thoughtfully explores ecology and curiosity, as a ladybird questions her own identity. With delightful humour—like a bird nail bar—and a redeemed weasel, the story ends heartwarmingly. A creative and beautifully illustrated start to a promising writing career.
My grandchildren will be very excited to read this I’m sure 📕 well done Emer bravo 👏
Seán Ó Briain –
A delightful children’s storyline told with rhyme and rhythm, as well as alliteration and onomatopoeia. Admirably, more poem-like than prose. Beautifully illustrated and full of wildlife. Based on sound environmental and ecological themes. It even poses the question: Is the ladybird a bird, and can it fly? All ends well and even the wicked weasel redeems himself in the end. There is good humour throughout. Good links are established between the animal and real world. A case in point is the delightful, image of a modern nail bar where birds keep their claws shiny, sharp and trim. What a great start to Emer’s creative writing career!
