Aoife finds history boring. She can’t understand why her mother spends so much time treasure hunting in the old monastery. However, when she visits the monastery at midnight and falls off the monastery roof, she suddenly finds herself whooshed back in time to a world of monks, ancient manuscripts and vicious Vikings. Maybe history isn’t so boring after all! A thoroughly enjoyable historical adventure.
(Age 8+)
Níl mórán spéise ag Aoife sa stair. Ní thuigeann sí cén fáth a gcaitheann a máthair an oiread sin ama sa tseanmhainistir agus í sa tóir ar thaisce rúnda. Nuair a thugann Aoife cuairt ar an tseanmhainistir i lár na hoíche, áfach, foghlaimíonn sí go leor faoin am atá thart. Scéal eachtraíochta ina bhfuil go leor le foghlaim faoi na manaigh, na Lochlannaigh agus an saol fadó. B’fhéidir nach bhfuil an stair chomh leadránach sin!
