Máire Zepf has written 17 books for children and has recently launched her latest story, a new book of faery fables called The Cloud Kingdom.

Complete with beautiful hand-drawn illustrations by Andrew Whitson, The Cloud Kingdom introduces us to a girl called Nancy.

Nancy has to make a bargain with the Faery King to get her cat back. In order to do so, she starts telling different stories, with each story linking into the one which follows.

Speaking from No Alibis, the independent bookshop in Botanic, Andrew reveals: “This book has been a complete pleasure to work on.”
