A Dance in Donegal by Jennifer Deibel is the tale of Moira, who recently lost her mother. She has also finished her training to be a teacher at the normal school. As per her mothers arrangements before her death she will be heading to Ireland to teach at the local school. Her mother hasn’t shared much about her upbringing in Ireland, but when Moira arrives in Ireland she soon realizes there is a deep history that her mother has never shared with her. Moira must learn the customs and ways of those in Donegal. Is this really the life for her? Will she ever fit in? What about her students and those around her who are giving her a really difficult time?
A Dance in Donegal is a delightful tale of a young school teacher, a new country and a new life. I did enjoy the story. I would recommend looking at the glossary in the back of the book to help you understand some of the colloquial language that is used.
A Dance in Donegal is an enjoyable story! I was given a free copy from the publisher for my honest review. I am happy to recommend this book.
