This children's chapter book for 7-9 year-olds offers an exciting woodland adventure set in Ireland. It is the first in the Gollogans series, which has been written to promote a love of reading and a love of nature.

Living close to nature, the gollogans must confront all the difficulties of life in the wild, but their biggest challenge is how to deal with the “giants” threatening their home. In this first book of the Gollogans series, can young gollogan Dil overcome her scaredy-tail ways and leave the woodland to ask the giants for help?

Helen O’Sullivan has created an enchanting world, made all the more captivating by her storytelling. I can see this becoming a series children will read again and again." Pauline Tait, author of 'The Fairy in the Kettle.'
