Cara Nua (Niotú)

Úrscéal maisithe sa tsraith ‘Níotú’ don aoisghrúpa 7+ faoi indiach beag dearg, agus a chuid cairde.

‘Chonaic Níotú rud éigin a chuir an cluiche as a cheann. Bhí racún óg ina luí in aghaidh an chrainn agus é beagnach i bhfolach faoi na duilleoga. D’ardaigh an t-ainmhí a chloigeann. Bhí éadan dubh agus bán air, cosúil le masc. Lig sé cnead as.’
Shocraigh an tIndiach beag ar aire a thabhairt don racún agus peata a dhéanamh de, ach ba ghearr gur tuigeadh go mbeadh trioblóid leis. . .

An illustrated novel in the ‘Níotú’ series for the 7+ about a little red indian and his friends.

‘Níotú saw something that put the game out of his mind. A young racoon was lying under the tree, almost hidden by the leaves. The animal raised its head. He had a black and whitre face, almost like a mask. He let out a squeel.’
The little red Indian decided to take care of the racoon and to keep him as a pet, but it was soon clear that there would be problems!
