Brave Highland Heart

The book looks at the dilema of a wee lass, unable to attend the ceilidh[party] It shows her determination to be in on things. The illustrations clearly show that the artist knows about bagpipes and pipers. The drawings are very accurate. Also about kids and their feelings. The final illustration speaks to that great, childlike joy of being let in on the ceilidh, after she went thru the range of feelings as her Dad piped his heart out. Great for anyone wanting to introduce their wee ones to the pipes and the Maritimes approach to a good time.
