Review: The Mystery of Ireland’s Eye is a middle-grade adventure story following the adventure of Dylan Maples. Dylan has heard about Ireland’s Eye in the stories that his dad tells him. Irelands Eye is a ghost town—in more ways than one. Some say that it’s haunted and filled with ghosts, and the town there is abandoned with not a soul living there—or going there, actually. Dylan has only heard stories of this place, but he feels like he has to go there. So he devises a plan to make his parents let him go. Ireland’s Eye is surrounded by rough waters, and for some reason his parents want to kayak there?? I dunno, but if I was an adventurer of sorts, I wouldn’t want to put all of my family in kayaks for them to paddle in rough and deadly waters that are also full of whales who could very well overturn your kayak… yeah. That sounds a little Also the waters are icy cold because they decide to go in the winter. Smartness. Dylan and his parents are kayaking and navigating the freezing waters, when gUeSs WhAt a whale almost overturns Dylan’s kayak. So Dylan gets a nice close-up of his new whale friend, while his parents are scared half to death because it’s like “Oh my gosh my child almost died”…. So that’s fun. I probably should have mentioned this earlier, but Ireland’s Eye is a small island located off the coast of Newfoundland, so my guy Dylan over here is from Toronto so they have to take a long and perilous… er… road trip? Ah, yes, the road trip. The best beginning to any adventure. Hehe. So they go to Newfoundland and they are just about to head off to Ireland’s Eye when they meet a fisherman who’s all like “DoN’t Go To ThE eYe yOu hAvE aLl bEeN WARNed”. So of course they go anyway, because *adventure*.
