Synopsis

Hamish and Mirren live in a quiet farmhouse by a beautiful loch in Scotland. In these six tales, they encounter a talking sea urchin, a strange flute, singing sand, the Wee Folk and their idea of 'spring cleaning', and Grizelda Grimithistle, a mischievous wee witch who, not content with stealing warm creamy milk direct from their cow, sets about helping herself to Mirren's freshly-died hanks of wool. Moira Miller's characteristic wit and humour shine through in this delightful collection of stories.

Media Reviews
'I loved this book because it is funny. You can feel the wind and the rain and the cold coming out of the book. It is well written, for all ages. A good bedtime story book as well as reading on your own.' -- Karis, age 10, Education Otherwise, December 2004 '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 'A children's tale told with wit and humour; illustrations by Mairi Hedderwick.' -- Scots Magazine, December 2004
