The I Hate the French Official Handbook by Malcolm Scott
A sensitive and sympathetic guide to what makes Johnny Gauloise tick. Topics include the French character (they have none), French history (one long series of military defeats) and 50 reasons for hating the French (two-pronged plugs, Sacha Distel, pretending not to understand English).
Mairi Hedderwick was born in Gourock, Scotland. At seventeen she took a job as a mother's help on the Isle of Coll in the Hebrides, beginning a life-long love affair with islands and their small communities. Her children were brought up there and now some of her grandchildren. Mairi's island world is delightfully reflected in the imaginary island of Struay where her perennially popular Katie Morag stories are set. As well as creating children's books Mairi writes and illustrates travel books for adults, including Highland Journey and Eye on the Hebrides (Birlinn 2009). She also illustrated the acclaimed Janet Reachfar books, which are published by Birlinn. She continues to live on Coll.
