The summer holidays are a great time to get children reading. Publishers are producing some standout books to lure young readers away from their computers and back to the page.

Young children love picture books and Sarah Bowie's debut picture book, Let's See Ireland, is stunning (O'Brien Press, €12.99). Molly is going on a road trip around Ireland with her family and the reader is invited to join her as she visits Dublin Zoo, Hook Lighthouse and many other Irish landmarks.
