'An enchanting Scottish journey through the alphabet... The
illustrations are fabulous and each page is filled with wonderful
detail.'
-- Creative Steps magazine
'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 Sang 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. These are colorful and appealing, featuring a
family (Dad carries a toddler in a front pouch) with a Scottie dog
interspersed here and there... this might be useful in the States
for Scottish expats or families preparing for a trip.'
-- Kirkus
