The Wishing of Biddy Malone by Joy Cowley

Biddy Malone is a determined dreamer, hankering after an unlikely romance.
She’s a will-of-the-wisp girl who believes in Irish magic and who learns that dreams sometimes come true if you try hard enough.
This tale captures the lilt and poetry of Irish country people, with a bit of magic in the mix.
The vibrant illustrations enhance the story line, giving this picture book a dream like quality, which will appeal to younger and older readers.
This is a tale for all who believe in faeries, or love dancing or dreaming and maybe have a bit of Irish in them.
