Facilitator

Edgeworthstown Library & their amazing staff

Craig Lucas is the Senior Library Assistant of Edgeworthstown Library. He is originally from London and has been living in Ireland for more than 20 years.

He loved reading bedtime stories to his children, but since they have long outgrown the desire for a story before sleeping, he now reads to children in the library!

Craig particularly likes reading silly stories that rhyme, and is a huge fan of children’s books by Dr Seuss, and Julia Donaldson.

Grateful appreciation to our sponsors
