What Lives In Your Imagination - Stories About Animals by Young Authors!

In January 2021, we invited writers age 7-12 to tell us a story about an animal or creature - real or imagined. We received over 120 stories, poems and illustrations!

In this celebration of creativity, ALL the stories from young writers all over the island of Ireland are published here, organised by age.

Animated Tales!
