3. Na Cailleacha (Roald Dahl)
Children can still enjoy all of their favourite stories – as Gaeilge. Na Cailleacha is a wonderful translation of Roald Dahl’s The Witches. Witches absolutely detest children. To a witch, a child smells like dogs’ droppings. And now the Grand High Witch is planning to get rid of every child in the country — can anybody stop them? Roald Dahl’s The Witches tells the story of a brave young boy and his Norwegian grandmother as they battle the country’s witches.
