Oor Wullie’s ABCs in Scots

by Kate McAuliffe, Illustrated by Mike Donaldson

Join Oor Wullie, Scotland’s favourite wee laddie, for a braw adventure through the alphabet – in Scots!From A to Z, each page introduces a different Scots word or phrase, brought to life with a clear explanation and colourful, specially commissioned illustrations.

Along the way, Wullie and his pals – Bob, Soapy, Wee Eck, Primrose, Jada, Ollie and his faithful dug Wee Harry – share the fun of language, friendship and a wee bit of mischief. There’s even a hidden letter to spot in every picture, adding an extra layer of interactive fun for young readers. A joyful introduction to Scots for children and a charming celebration of a much-loved Scottish icon.
