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! -- John

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". |
