Jean’s daughter Victoria wrote the heart-warming stories while Jean's illustrations are in the classic tradition of delightful pen and ink drawings.

Every copy is personally signed by Victoria and Jean.

Fun for all ages, the book includes many quaint Scottish words and a glossary for translation.  For instance, did you know that in Scotland a fernitickle is a freckle?  Or that a forkietail is an earwig?  But as Uncle Angus would no doubt say, ‘porridge is just braw (fine) in any language!’ Happy Birthday Uncle Angus Read more of Uncle Angus’ home-spun wisdom in his cheery Introduction.Happy Birthday Uncle Angus
