A classic for young readers worldwide, Under the Hawthorn Tree continues to go from strength to strength, and this audio edition is a must for any collection.

Ireland in the 1840s is devastated by famine. When tragedy strikes their family, Eily, Michael and Peggy are left to fend for themselves. Starving and in danger of the dreaded workhouse, they escape.

With tremendous courage they set out on a journey that will test every reserve of strength, love and loyalty they possess.

I am 7 I loved this story. I can’t imagine doing what these kids did. That is so hard for kids to have to do. They are so brave and desperate.
