|title=Patrick and the President
|rating=4
|genre=Emerging Readers
|summary=Meet Patrick. Such a direction is a little facetious here, because it's who ''he's'' going to meet that's the key. He lives in New Ross, County Wexford, and his school has been chosen to perform as a choir for the much-anticipated arrival of President J F Kennedy, as the man traces the path of his Irish ancestry, in what (in addition to stop-overs in England and Italy on the same trip) was to be his last state visit abroad. But surely just being one among three hundred on such an auspicious, yet brief, occasion is not enough for such an enterprising lad? Well, no, for his connected parents have got another trick up their sleeve for him…

|summary=Sitting on my shelf is well thumbed book. I have had it since a child and even to this day pick it up once in a while and read its contents. What is this tome? A slice of classic children's literature that taught me all about the absurd and that words could be played with. This was not ''Wind in the Willows'' or 'Swiss Family Robinson'', my classic is a Dr Seuss Omnibus that contained four of his books.
