Celebrating Irish Children’s Books | Online School and Family Book Festival. This year we are part of the Dublin Book Festival.

PROGRAMME SCHEDULE

Supported by the Arts Council of Ireland - Literature

2pm | Eoinín – Muireann Ní Chíobháin agus Róisín Hahessy

November 20, 2021 2:00 pm
Cost: €5 per family
Until 2:30 pm
AGE 4+

Bí i dteannta Muireann agus Róisín agus uan beag gleoite darbh ainm Eoinín d’imeacht dátheangach speisialta. Beidh do chúnamh ag teastáil, mar is fútsa amháin atá sé scéal Eoinín a bhogadh ar aghaidh ó leathanach go leathanach. Tá Eoinín agus a eitleog ag fanacht ort! Ná dearmad dathanna agus páipéar chun foghlaim conas Eoinín a tharraingt tú féin.

Join Muireann and Róisín and a cute little sheep named Eoinín for a special, bilingual event. We’ll need your help because only you can move Eoinín’s story along from page to page. Eoinín and his kite are waiting for you! Don’t forget to bring colours and paper to learn how to draw Eoinín yourself.

A live interactive event, delivered online

Speakers

Muireann Ní Chíobháin

Is údar, scéalaí agus pearsa teilifíse í Muireann Ní Chíobháin. Bíonn sí le feiceáil go minic ar chláir do pháistí ar RTÉjr agus TG4. Nuair nach bhfuil sí ag cumadh scéalta, bíonn sí ag tarraingt pictiúir lena mac óg, agus ag cócaireacht nó ag snámh san fharraige. Tá dhá leabhair foilsithe aici – Scúnc agus Smúirín agus GIY’s Know-it-ALLmanac. Tá blocleabhar nua do naíonáin dá cuid foilsithe ag Futa Fata faoi uainín beag gleoite agus na heachtraí a bhíonn aige. Muireann Ní Chíobháin is an author, storyteller and TV personality. You can see her regularly on RTÉjr and TG4. When she’s not inventing stories, she’s doodling with her young son, and cooking or swimming in the sea. She has published two books to date - Scúnc agus Smúirín) agus GIY’s Know-it-ALLmanac. Her newest book, Eoinín, a board book for young children about the adventures of a very cute lamb, was recently published.

Róisín Hahessy

Rugadh agus tógadh Róisin i gCluain Meala. Bhog sí go dtí an Bhrasaíl in 2015, agus tá sí ina cónai sa Phortaingéal faoi láthair. Tógann sí a inspioráid ó chultúr atá ag athrú, agus aeráid atá ag athrú. Déanann sí an chuid is mó dá healaín go digiteach, ach is iad na hábhair is fearr léi ná peann luaidhe agus páipéar nuair a bhíonn sí ag tarraingt le haghaidh spraoi. Is iomaí leabhair do leanaí atá léirithe ag Róisín d’fhoilsitheoirí éagsúla - Little Tiger Press, Usborne Publishing agus Futa Fata, ina measc. Is é Eoinín an leabhar is déanaí atá aici le Futa Fata. Róisín was born and raised in Ireland, moved to Brazil in 2015 and has recently relocated to Portugal. Changing cultures, climate and so much more has really inspired Róisín and her art over the last few years. She makes most of her art digitally, but when drawing for fun, her favourite materials are pencil and paper.Róisín has illustrated children’s books for clients such as Little Tiger Press, Usborne Publishing and Futa Fata. Her latest book with Futa Fata is Eoinín.

And my favourite #picturebook this year is the amazing #BeWildLittleOne by Irish author @Hopewrites and illuminated by the marvellous art of @DanielEgneus. It's a definite #IrishBooks recommendation for #BookElves2022. A perfect gift for little readers - and not-so-little ones! https://t.co/1zjERJ3FRO
