A Hantle O Verse by Bette Boyd
With its rich mixture of Blethers, Bairns, Bogles, Beasties, Ballads, Battles and Bourachs, this poetry collection draws upon a range of languages and dialects of Scotland, from the Lallans of the south and the Doric of the north-east, to the distinctive speech rhythms of Caithness and the northern isles. Experience the sounds and cadences of the Scots language by reading aloud the poems contained within this anthology. This is a book to be enjoyed not just by children, but by all.
"..a good book and a much needed one. ...it is hard to find a collection as useful and wide-ranging. ...All lovers of Scottish poetry...should have this book on their shelves. ...The authors are to be congratulated on this varied and stimulating collection." -- Speaking English, Journal of the English Speaking Board (International), Spring 2004.
