I just finished reading "The Cottage at Bantry Bay" to my kids. I would highly recommend it as a read aloud. My 4, 6, 10, and 13 year old all loved it, the infant wasn't much of a fan but he's a bit of a barbarian.

I would not recommend attempting to read the whole book in an Irish brogue, though you might be tempted to, you'll end up hoarse for three days after. If you just stick to the dialogue your voice should recover the next day but even without the accent the kids will still enjoy it.
