'Dearg' by Máire Zepf
Fionn is passionate about many things in life – her friends, the language, human rights – but whenever she tries to speak in front of others, her courage fails her. When she and her friends become involved in the language rights movement in Belfast, she makes a decision: she must find her own voice. But something disastrous happens to Fionn. Now, she will have to speak out – not just for the cause, but for herself. She soon learns how courageous she really is, and how powerful her voice is when she manages to use it.
