My First Book of Irish Animals’ is a picture-book for young children to introduce them to the wonderful wild animals we have in this country. The book is illustrated by the hugely talented Aoife Quinn, from County Wicklow.
The motivation for this book came from reading to my own young children. I would have loved to have been able to show them a book like this with big drawings and information about our Irish wildlife but unfortunately could fine one. In book shops today, there are lots of picture books available about sharks and bears, big cats and spiders from all over the world, but there are none that focus specifically on the Irish fauna.
Supporters who back this journey will in effect be pre-ordering a copy or copies of the book which can be posted to them or to friends or family as gifts.

Excellent!!
looks good!
It’s a book.
Continuing the work of de Buitléar, so not that unique. Good stuff though.
Nice book. I would hope kids learn a bit about this in school though. Foxes and hedgehogs featured prominently “when I was a lad”, so I was a bit shocked in the accompanying video that the kids couldn’t identify them!
Who remembers Gregory Gráinneog?
Whom Fustar describes as a “bipedal, scalded-horse-faced freak”.

I do and have fond memories of the time Brìd Broc bit him and gave him rabies.
Indeed and I do. And whatever the owl was called.
Animals of Ireland I hope
