Family Walk in Cork – With Children’s Author Elayne Heaney

Author Elayne Heaney hails from Cork but now lives with her family

Author Elayne Heaney hails from Cork but now lives with her family in Skerries, Co Dublin.

When visiting family in Cork, a visit to Kinsale is always on the list. A trip to Charles Fort is always super way to spend a sunny day – exploring the ancient fort ruins, chasing imaginary dragons and homemade treat in their Tea-rooms is always a great day out. Wrap up well though if you plan on going as it’s a very windy spot!

Then it’s back down to Kinsale town to walk the rainbow coloured streets and have some tasty seafood before home!

Elayne started writing children’s’ stories to answer her son’s curiosity and questions about weather and nature. She released her first book in 2019 and has continued to create beautiful STEM based picture over the last 5 years.

Wonderfully Weathery Books creates beautiful picture books all about the weather and how it works. Ireland is a small island with a big personality when it comes to the weather – we love to talk about the weather and children love to learn all about it!

The aim of these books is to teach children about the weather by introducing them to different weather characters and showing how they interact together to create different types of weather!

The land of Weatherville exists way up high and is the home to every cloud, snowflake, raindrop, drizzledrop, rainbow and any other weather-related wonder! They walk, they talk, they laugh, they cry but most of all their friendships teach us how the weather works!

Multi award nominated books are wholly created and produced in Ireland. Books printed on FSC mix paper with plant based inks. Books available at www.wonderfullyweatherybooks.com
