Story Seeds: Adventures Across Limerick & Beyond

by Fighting Words Youth Authors

Doubling the previous two anthologies in this series, this edition of Story Seeds has no fewer than ten amazing stories inside! Travel through time, gain superpowers, and ride a helicopter in these mighty tales! Meet twelve-eyed aliens, puppies, Banana Man, a talking bull, and Sparkles the cat.

From the publisher: “The Story Seeds project first sprouted in 2021, a collaboration between Fighting Words, An Garda Síochána Community Engagement and local schools - new stories to celebrate the areas where we all live, work and play. The idea was that the first school would write the first chapter of a story, the next class would write the second chapter and so on. The first hugely successful collection was published with primary schools on the northside of Dublin, followed by further collections from schools in Dublin South, Dublin West, Drogheda, Co. Louth and in Co. Wicklow. The collection you hold in your hands now contains stories written by schools in Limerick City and in Co. Tipperary. We think you will agree that each story is full of action and fun starring a huge range of inventive characters in adventures from King John’s Castle to the Rock of Cashel, from Moyross to Roscrea and everywhere in between. Congratulations to all the young writers for a fantastic achievement. Enjoy!”
