Book Description
The Shamrogues series of children's books (four titles) was first published in the early nineties and was a sensation. Orpen Press are pleased to announce the publication of new, updated editions of the first two books in this much-loved series, The Shamrogues – First Challenge and The Shamrogues – Second Challenge. The Shamrogues are five magical creatures who were entrusted with the power of the high druids of Ireland when magic became forbidden in Ireland. Disguised as stones, they are awakened from their sleep by a little girl called Niamh. Together with Niamh and her brother Conor and sister Sinead, and with many other creatures they meet along the way, the Shamrogues set about on a quest to save the local environment from its enemies. Having sold over 40,000 copies in its first edition, this series will delight a new generation of children.

"Different beliefs, practices and rituals behind the notion of their magical powers and virtues are revealed. The situations in which people resorted to them are also examined: selecting chieftains, establishing the truth, curing sickness, and promoting fertility. In conclusion, the role of sacred stones in the religious and spiritual life of modern Ireland is described. This is a reminder of our spiritual past as some of these stones and monuments enter their fifth millennium."--Jacket.

Book Description
The Ogham Grove is a system of working with the twenty trees of the Celtic/Druidic Year Wheel. The Ogham Grove can be used as a divination system but it is much more than that - it is a way of creating an individual connection with sacred sites and the spirits of the land... and ultimately a connection to our true selves.
