Nory Ryan’s Song
PATRICIA REILLY GIFF
NORY RYAN’S FAMILY has lived on Maidin Bay on the west coast of
Ireland for generations. Maidin Bay is a beautiful place, full of magic and
song, but life there is hard. Nory’s beloved sister Maggie sets off for
Brooklyn, in America, and Nory dreams of a time when the Ryans will all
live there together. But a terrible blight attacks the potatoes. No crop
means starvation. Nory must summon the courage and ingenuity to find
food, to find hope, to find a way to help her family survive.
