Deep in the heart of the Trossachs countryside, in Scotland, lies the village of Aberfoyle. To the south east of the village is a hill called Doon Hill. Legend has it that this is the home of the Sidhe (pronounced shee), or Faery Folk. It is said that in 1692, the minister of the parish, Reverend Robert Kirk, was spirited away by the Faery Folk as a punishment for revealing their secrets. Meet Hamish, his granny and other characters inside this book. They are gnomes, guardians of the oak trees. Their homeland; the woody knoll called Doon Hill. Their duty; to take care of sick animals and to protect the oak woodlands. Their biggest enemy; owls! Their greatest delight; to sing and dance celebrating the forest gods. Their biggest hate; humans who call them faeries, blame them for troubles and show them no respect.

As a Scot abroad I was excited to read this book. I was not disappointed. Although intended for a juvenile audience I,as an adult,thoroughly enjoyed the adventures of the Fairy Folk. This is a book which will appeal to the intelligence of a younger audience. These Fair Folk are believable and you quickly become invested in both the characters and the story.Home seemed a lot closer while I was reading this book.Product details

This is a beautifully written book which will appeal to both lovers of folklore and Scotland alike. It told the story of a local legend and a story I knew since childhood. Now I understand the whole legend and the story too. I believe Janette's version.
