Cork County Council\u2019s Library and Arts Service has selected \u2018Freya Harte Is Not A Puzzle\u2019 by author M\u00e9abh Collins as the chosen title for this year\u2019s \u2018One County, One Book\u2019 initiative.<\/p>\n

Now in its fourth year, \u2018One County, One Book\u2019 is designed to promote homegrown literature and literacy as part of the Library\u2019s community outreach programme to young people and is supported by Creative Ireland.<\/p>\n

M\u00e9abh Collins has a background in both education and children\u2019s literature and blends these skills beautifully in her debut novel with an account of a newly diagnosed autistic teenage girl who very firmly does not want \u201cspecial treatment\u201d in school.<\/p>\n

Freya\u2019s always felt different, so when she learns she\u2019s autistic she doesn’t want anyone to know. All she wants is to fit in. But does she really need to change herself or can she find friends who like her just the way she is? \u2018Freya Harte Is Not A Puzzle\u2019 centres around friendship, discovering who you really are and being ok with that!<\/p>\n

In celebration of the book, Secondary School and Youthreach students are invited to Vertigo at Cork County Hall next month for book discussion with author, M\u00e9abh Collins. Booking is essential and places can be secured by emailing Cork County Council\u2019s Library and Arts Service at <\/span>schoolslibrary@corkcoco.ie<\/a><\/p>\n

Further online events will be held during November to allow students the opportunity to meet and discuss the book.  For further enquiries, email corkcountylibrary@corkcoco.ie<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":33773,"template":"","class_list":["post-33772","event","type-event","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nOne County One Book - Creative Ireland Programme<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Cork County Council\u2019s Library and Arts Service has selected \u2018Freya Harte Is Not A Puzzle\u2019 by author M\u00e9abh Collins as the chosen title for this year\u2019s \u2018One County, One Book\u2019 initiative.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.creativeireland.gov.ie\/en\/event\/one-county-one-book\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"One County One Book - Creative Ireland Programme\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Cork County Council\u2019s Library and Arts Service has selected \u2018Freya Harte Is Not A Puzzle\u2019 by author M\u00e9abh Collins as the chosen title for this year\u2019s \u2018One County, One Book\u2019 initiative.
