These are delightful
Scottish children's stories written by Margo Fallis and read by Gordon
Nicol
with his rich, distinctive Scottish accent.
"Angus the Tartan Goat"
Listen to how Angus, when trying to save his
master's kilt from getting soaked during a
big thunder storm, found that it tasted awfully nice.
So, he ate the whole thing and his coat became
tartan.
"Headaches for Harry"
Harry the Highland cow has a terrible time because
his snoring disturbs the other highland
cattle so much that they tell him that he has to leave. He does so very
sadly and soon, the neighbouring Angus
cattle decide that it's safe to muscle in and take over. The
Highland cattle realize that big Harry had been the
one thing stopping the mean Angus cattle. So, they go in search of him.
They bring him back and are quite happy to put up
with his snoring after he chases off the
Angus baddies.
"Blue Cheese"
Fiona was dairy cow who one day accidentally munched
on some violets. She enjoyed them so much
that she ate more and more all day long. Farmer McHay was shocked when the
milk that Fiona produced was purple! After that, every day her milk was
the colour of whatever she
ate.
"Helping Hands"
Burton the beaver saves his fellow creatures when a
flood threatens their lives. They climb on
his back as he goes from place to place rescuing others. "Hold
on tight. Don't let go. We'll swim along with the flow."
"The Highland Triplets"
Then visit a highland glen and listen to Mrs.
McTattie delivering the triplets Donald,
Douglas and Duncan who have an enchanting time with visits from a cow,
rabbit and sheep. Mrs.
McTattie has great difficulty calming the boys until she has a brilliant
idea.
"Hurry Up Sherman"
Sherman has to be the absolute slowest snail in
Scotland. Nothing will make him move any
faster. But he enjoys his day, taking his time to savour everything on his
path. He climbs into a hollowed out tree trunk and causes an army of ants
to re-route their supply
line.
"The Train Ride"
Ian & Mac (two racoons) are tired of being hungry
and out in the rain, so they climb
aboard a steam train that takes them on a
food adventure Train Ride.
"Daisy Necklaces"
Maureen loved to play with the sheep
and lambs. One day she made a daisy necklace and then made one for each of
the lambs. She made a special one to take home to her mum.
