Buzzing in Limerick

I had a wonderful few days in Limerick at the Buzzing with Books Conference with my good pals, Siobhan Parkinson, our first Laureate na nÓg,  Marie-Louise Fitzpatrick and her husband Michael Emberley. 

Here's a selfie Marie-Louise took on our trip down.

I also met a few old friends again whom I hadn't seen for some time including Dr Barbara Ornstein, and Dr Bill Bingman from Frostburg State University.

Many thanks to the organizers especially Dr. Fíodhna Gardiner-Hyland, and everyone who looked after us so well and who made the event such a success in it's inaugural year.

Here is a little video that I showed to some of the children who attended on the second day. I thought the theme was appropriate to such a "buzzing" event.
