Much, much more than just an alphabet book -- it's a real Scottish adventure!'-- Creative Steps magazine'Parents reading along will easily relate to Auld Lang Syne as sung at New Year and drawings of clouds of M for midgies populating Scottish holidays. This is definitely one for my grandson in Australia!'-- Lothian Life'This bright, colourful book gets well away from the "A for Apple" cliches. My favourite page is Puffins, because they are so cute, and the one that made me laugh out loud was the double page spread for U and V - Umbrella and Very, very wet!'-- Anabel Marsh, Anabel's Children's Literature Blog'Every early years practitioner will want a Scottish alphabet colourfully featured in their learning environment for children after reading this lovely text and taking in the fantastic, colourful, atmospheric, detailed and inspirational illustrations This is quite simply a beautiful book that teaches children the alphabet in a refreshingly new and informative way.' -- Early Years Educator' the text is dependent on the illustrations to provide context and entertainment.
