Focus Ireland – How Will Santa Find Us?

‘How will Santa find us?’ was a Christmas story from first time authors Shane O’Brien and Stephen Rogers. This book was conceived as a response from Ireland’s creative community to our growing homeless crisis, in particular the startling number of homeless children. It was launched as a collaboration in April 2019 at OFFSET and features beautiful artwork from some of Ireland’s best loved illustrators. Each page is drawn in the unique and distinct style of the different illustrators as we go on a journey through the children’s imaginations. Produced by Bren Byrne and Jessica Derby and published by Gill Books. It was the first project from Good Cop Good Cop, storming the best-selling charts in the lead up to Christmas, was featured on The Late Late Toy Show and raised over €75,000 for Focus Ireland.
