Brave Maeve: St Helens Library

Brave Maeve is a Liverpool girl. ❤️📍🔱

In 2023 she was taken on an amazing adventure, through Irish folklore, when something is stolen from her Grandad Mac by a pesky púca. Now she’s back, returning a lost item from the Famine to an Irish King lost in the annals of time!

To accompany the richly illustrated (second) book, this exhibition for children offers a fun way to pass some time with the child in your life. Aimed at 7-11-year-olds, the book and accompanying exhibit, will allow children to take selfies with characters from Irish folklore, so bring your cameras and/or phones. 

This event was made possible via a co-commissioning fund, in partnership with Gael Linn, An tUltach and Gaelbhratach.

A limited number of the new book will be available. Copies of last year’s Brave Maeve are available to buy in our online shop.
