About this listen

Because of the potato me and my family left our home and travelled 6,000 miles to find a new life....

Slim Hannigan and her family are poor but happy. Theirs is a life filled with love and laughter - and a pet pig called Hamlet.

But things change overnight, and suddenly they find themselves facing hunger and danger like they have never known.... So they leave their village in Ireland to journey to America, where, they hope, family and fortune await them.

Slim soon finds herself living a life that feels just like one of those far-fetched stories her Da has always told. Can one brave girl keep her family together no matter what is thrown at them....?

I found the book interesting, with the origin of Wall Street just one new thing I learned. The story was also enjoyable, with good characters and descriptions. A sequel would be great.

Interesting and enjoyable
