Hi Sharon, Marita Conlon Mckenna has written a trilogy of books for children on the famine called : Under the Hawthorn Tree, Wildflower Girl and Fields of Home. Published by the O'Brien Press in Dublin. Nicola.

Nicola, Thank you. As it happens, I bought those for my daughter in 1998 when I was in Dublin (bookshops are a wonderful activity on a Sunday) when she was age 11, which I figured to be the perfect age for the series. They are a very lovely set.
