The Irish Twins, Illustrated Edition (Yesterday's Classics)
With Irish twins Larry and Eileen, we enjoy a visit to Granny Malone's and puzzle over the letter she has received from her son in America, a letter that sets the wheels in motion for all sorts of adventures. Along the way the twins encounter gypsies and discover a pig stuck in a bog that brings a change in fortune to their family. While following Larry and Eileen on their adventures, we gain a vivid understanding of the close-knit community life of the Irish countryside, as it existed a century ago.

Über den Autor
Before Lucy Fitch Perking would publish a story, she would firstread it to a group of children she knew, to see what they would sayabout the story. This group included her son Lawrence, his cousinsand playmates.The first story they listened to was The Dutch Twins. Since thechildren in the select group liked it, she published the book, and soondiscovered that many more children loved her story. As a result shewrote even more Twins books, which more than two million copieswere sold around the world.These books have since gone out of print. However, the storiesshe told are still relevant today, and it would truly be a tragedy for thechildren of today to miss these wonderful stories.Bluewater Publications is proud to republish her stories, which webelieve will truly enrich the lives and educations of out children.
