Hamish and Mirren live in a quiet farmhouse by a beautiful loch in Scotland. Quiet, that is, except for the talking sea urchin, singing sand, hungry fairies, sad bogle and grumpy witch!

This delightful collection of stories is a true Scottish children’s classic. Moira Miller’s characteristic wit and humor shine through, and Mairi Hedderwick’s funny, charming illustrations bring gentle Hamish and his canny wife wonderfully to life for younger readers.
