This is Nioclás Beag, the energetic, amusing and endearing schoolboy who’s always in some kind of trouble. Whether at home or at school, Nioclás and his friends are caught up in a series of hilarious escapades that always result in confusion. Brought to life by René Goscinny, the prolific author of Asterix, and renowned illustrator Jean-Jacques Sempé, his adventures and exploits have delighted readers all over the world, and are now available to be read, re-read, and loved forever in Irish.

Nioclás Beag: Eachtraí Arís Eile is the second collection of stories in Irish with Nioclás Beag. Going to school was invented so you could do one simple thing — make lots of friends, of course! And that’s why Nicolas really likes going to school… and the best bit is playtime. But is it during the breaks, or during the lessons, that Nicolas and his friends get to play? That’s what everyone in charge of the school ask themselves every day. With Nicolas and his gang always up to some mischief, their teachers have got their hands full!

Nioclás Beag: Eachtraí Arís Eile is the third collection of funpacked short stories in Irish with Nioclás. We are all familiar with Nioclás and his friends by now and the events that befall them in this book are as funny and ridiculous as ever; whether at school when the doctors or the radio show hosts pay a visit or around town, camping in the wasteland, annoying the new bookshop owner or having an athletics competition! It seems that Nioclás has a new friend — the girl who lives next door… but what will the the rest of the gang think of her?
