Synopsis

Hamish laughs when his old mother talks about the Wee Folk and all their mischief-making. Until, that is, his baby son disappears. So begin Hamish's adventures, which include encounters with seal-people, a sad bogle, hungry fairies and cantankerous witches. These are five delightful, funny stories, all showcasing Moira Miller's characteristic wit.

Media Reviews
'I think I'd like to meet Hamish. Traditional, fairy magic in short stories with a charming contemporary feel. I loved reading these, and I think you will too. Not just for children.' -- Jill Marshall, Reading Matters (www.readingmatters.co.uk) 'The seven to 10-year-old reader will simply love the adventures of Hamish and his friends. The illustrated stories in lovely Scottish surroundings rattle along with much humour.' -- Greenock Telegraph, June 2005 'Written with panache and humour, Hamish and the Fairy Gifts is delightful entertainment.' -- Childrens Books of the Year 'A beautifully crafted book.' -- Books for Keeps
