## Description

'There was a wee lassie who swallowed a midgie. I don't know why she swallowed the midgie, So teeny and squidgy!' In this hilarious twist on a much-loved rhyme, the wee lassie swallows a succession of Scotland's favourite creatures to catch that peskie midgie -- including a puffin, a Scottie dog, a seal and even Nessie! After all that, she can't still be hungry. Can she? Kate McLelland's funny, engaging illustrations bring to life this uniquely Scottish version of a classic rhyme.

Review: A Great Book - A great book for 4/5 Year old.
Review: A fabulous Scottish twist on a classic rhyming tale - What a brilliant book! My Dad used to sing me the original version when I was small so I have always had a soft spot for it and, living close to the sea, I was delighted when I found 'There was an old lady who swallowed the sea' when my own child was very small, so we enjoyed both of those versions. Having been up to Scotland this summer My son and I were very excited to find this book. It is a perfect Scotland memento featuring just about all the 'wildlife' you might expect: seal, Scottie dog, puffin, the Loch Ness monster...even a haggis. My son also enjoyed saying 'wee' for small while we were away so this really is perfect. It is a joy to read and the illustrations are great too - quite different from the other two versions - and very clever (more like a household plumbing system diagram!). What a brilliant book!
