Athlone's Micheál Brett has published his second book.

Local man publishes Magical Circus sequel

Are you looking for escapism? Well, what better way to be swept away from the current climate than an exciting and magical read of 'Micheál and the Magical Circus Returns.'

This book is sure to bring a smile to your face with its engaging story, vibrant images, hidden bones and feel-good factor.

Athlone man Micheál Brett has already experienced success in 2016 with the publication of his first book 'Micheál and the Magical Circus', thanks to his launch at Westmeath Libraries. Since then, Micheál has been busy hosting readings in local schools, and he just adores sharing his love of circuses with everyone who reads his books.

In 2019 Micheál put his ideas on paper and created the sequel "Micheál Magical Circus Returns" which he published in January 2021. The story features Leenie Lion braving the fire hoops, Speedie Suzie on her invisible tightrope, Elphie Elephant and her icecream. Milly Moo will also be peeking through the pages and playing hide and seek through the story.

Both his books bring all the magic of the circus right into your home. It is a wonderful family read and is a perfect gift for children this Easter and all year around.

Micheál’s books can be purchased online through Etsy@mblimited and on Shop in Ireland at http://www.shopinireland.ie/store/michealcrafts. They're also available through local shops in the midlands. If you send him a message on social media, he will let you know which stores are stocking his books.

This talented man is one to watch as when not pursuing his role as an author, Micheál is busy with his crafts business where he creates unique festive and garden crafts.
