This
book, written in 1938, offers a vivid picture of an Ireland that has
all but disappeared. The O'Sullivan family invite the reader to share
their many homely adventures. Michael and Brigid brave the wilds and
gypsies on an errand for their injured father and come home with a new
friend; twins Liam and Francie keep everyone hopping; Mother and Father
draw the family together with story-telling, warmth and humor. Then
Michael and Brigid find a treasure which changes the course of things
for all. Illustrated by the author.
