Format:Hardcover
This is a delightful little story book, written in the most broad Scottish dialect, using Scottish idioms & vocabulary to make it an unexpectedly amusing read - but it has to be read in a Scots accent!
Something for children & adults, & because the stories are so well know then even non-Scots speakers should understand all the wee quips.

This is a brilliant book to read to children who are already familar with the traditional version of the fairy tale. It makes them laugh, appreciate their own dialect and the language discussions (opinions, comparing, sequencing, plot, character profiles etc) become animated and very useful. Who would have thought that a class of ten year olds would love listening to fairy tales?
Seriously Silly Stories is another book along this line....with stories such as Snow white and the Seven Aliens and Little Red Riding Wolf to name but two.

Absolutely fantastic. Being an expat Scot, my pronunciation was a bit off but my granddaughter still got a kick out of it and amazingly could work out what I was trying to say:)
