An Irish Country Welcome is a charming entry in Patrick Taylor's
internationally bestselling Irish Country series. In the close-knit
Northern Irish village of Ballybucklebo, it's said that a new baby
brings its own welcome. Young doctor Barry Laverty and his wife Sue
are anxiously awaiting their first child, but as the community
itself prepares to welcome a new decade, the closing months of the
1960s bring more than a televised moon landing to Barry, his
friends, his neighbors, and his patients, including a number of
sticky questions. A fledgling doctor joins the practice as a
trainee, but will the very upper-class Sebastian Carson be a good
fit for the rough and tumble of Irish country life? And as
sectarian tensions rise elsewhere in Ulster, can a Protestant man
marry the Catholic woman he dearly loves, despite his father's
opposition? And who exactly is going to win the award for the best
dandelion wine at this year's Harvest Festival? But while Barry and
Dr. Fingal Flahertie O'Reilly and their fellow physicians deal with
everything from brain surgery to a tractor accident to a difficult
pregnancy, there's still time to share the comforting joys and
pleasures of this very special place: fly-fishing, boat races, and
even the town's very first talent competition! Welcome back to
Ballybucklebo, as vividly brought to life by a master storyteller.

In their new book, the winners of the TES National Award for
Outstanding Literacy Initiative share the secrets behind school
improvement through raising literacy levels across the curriculum.
Graham Tyrer and Patrick Taylor draw on the successful literacy
initiative that raised their school from good to outstanding, as
well as their work in three UK schools with a range of Ofsted
ratings. The 54 practical strategies are grouped into beginning,
embedding, sustaining and evaluating stages and include ideas such
as choosing the literacy focus of your school, involving students
as literacy leaders and creating a 'Litbox'. Each entry details the
literacy outcomes of the strategy, provides step by step guidance
for implementing and sustaining it and includes feedback and tips
for staff and students who have used it. The Literacy Leader's
Toolkit is a must read for all literacy coordinators and leaders
who want to implement a whole-school programme , as well as for
those teachers who are determined to improve the literacy provision
in their classroom.
