One hat-loving lady,
Two pipers with puff,
Three grandads in pinnies,
They’ve all had enough!

Uh oh! Wee Rascal, the cheeky Scottie dog,
has run off with a delicious-looking hat.
The great Highland Games chase has begun!

Can tough caber-tossers, runaway coos or dizzy
Highland dancers catch the mischievous puppy in this hilariously hectic counting and rhyming book?

Reviews

'An absolute triumph of a picture book with many an engaging element to have little readers demanding multiple reads... Illustrator Laura Darling has illustrated all the shenanigans with incredible energy, and brought the wonderful Highland Games to life.'
-- My Book Corner

'Overall, we really enjoyed this book, between the rhyming story, the counting fun, and the lovely illustrations with lots of details to study. Whether or not you've been to a Highland Games before, you’ll find it really captures that Scottish flair, and it was impossible to choose a favourite scene.'
