Overview
"Ballyragget, Ballysadare,
Ballybrophy, Ballinasloe,
Ballyhooley, Ballycumber,
Ballyduff, Ballynashee,
Ballywhack. Don't they all sound jolly and grotesque?"
These places in Ireland may sound that way to Francesca. But not to Penelope
You remember, Penelope, don't you? She's the delightful Kate Douglas Wiggin heroine of Penelope English Experiences and Penelope's Experiences in Scotland.
But where or not you've read those books, (and really, you should ) you simply must read Penelope's Irish Experiences.
After plenty of wistful tea and scones in Scotland, Penelope and her friends Francesca and Salemina boat over to Ireland, faintly fearful it won't be Irish enough
No worries.
From thoughts on the differences in Fairies in Ireland and Scotland to a the lack of poetry in the Irish diet, Penelope's observations make a true feast, with flashes of verbal jigs and reels.
Oh yes . . . and then in comes the remarkable Miss Benella Dusenberry from New England, to join the fun and frolic
