Pat the Pipe Píobaire
Fuair Pat the Pipe-Píobaire-bás inné. Dúirt sé riamh gur beag píobairí a rinne slí beatha as an gceol. B'eisean ceann acu.

Seo é an t-am is tapúla gur chríochnaíos ag léamh leabhar Gaeilge! Dá lá!
In ainneoin sin, do thaitin an leabhar seo liom. An rud a chur as dom fén leabhar ná an bhfuil sé bunaithe ar fhíor-dhuine nó an ficsean amach is amach sa leabhar seo?
Bheadh sé go deas do dhaoine a bhfuil cumas cuibheasach acu i nGaeilge.
