Lough Lougarima, the lake featured in Paddy Donnelly’s new book, is located in Northern Ireland, near his hometown. For scientists, the phenomenon of ‘the disappearing lake’ is considered one of Northern Ireland’s most enigmatic geological attractions: the lake may be empty of water one day and completely full the next. Donnelly beautifully blends fiction with the magic of nature to craft a tender story about a little girl’s determination, her grandfather’s wisdom and the wonders of the natural world.

At Asvos’s bookshop you can find books about every animal: about bears and elephants, about tigers and dinosaurs, about narwhals and pandas. But there’s one that Asvos doesn’t have... The one with the jellyfish on the Moon. And that’s exactly the one Rory, the Little Fox, keeps asking him for, over and over again! Since this book isn’t to be found anywhere, perhaps someone ought to write it – and illustrate it too? A new book, from the universe of *Fox & Son*, The Bookworms. Award-winning author Paddy Donnelly places a lovable, book-loving hedgehog at the centre of his new story, creating a charming children’s tale that celebrates imagination, a love of reading and friendship.
