198.0. "Oidche Mhath!" by BASHER::FOX (The Round House, RG28 7NH) Wed May 13 1987 23:42

    I like to recommend some reading matter on Scottish crofting life
    - a series of books by Lillian Beckwith on the years she spent living
    amongst crofters in the Hebrides.  Her first book was entitled "The
    Hills is Lonely" published in the UK by Arrow Books.
    
    I strongly recommend this to anyone who likes a light-hearted insight
    into how other people live/lived!

    I'd like to recommend some children's books.  One is "The Magic
    Bagpipe", a picture book about a young boy who is learning to play
    the bagpipes and is befriended by a fairey who gives him the gift
    of making beautiful music.  Another is a series of picture books
    about a little girl who lives in an island village in the Hebrides,
    entitled "Katie Morag Delivers the Mail" and "Katie Morag and the
    two Grandmothers".
