A funny and heart-warming picture book tale starring two of Scotland's best-loved residents: an endangered black grouse and a cute wood mouse.
Bagpipe the Black Grouse loves admiring his glorious red eyebrows and his magnificent straight tail feathers. He feels sorry for his friend, Squeaker the Wood Mouse, with his boring brown fur and bendy tail. But Squeaker's help might be just what Bagpipe needs when he gets into some serious fox trouble.
This is a charming story for young children about valuing and understanding difference, and learning to work together.
'A delightfully funny and heartwarming story of two very unusual friends... Charming illustrations luring the reader into the beauty of the Scottish countryside add to the appeal.' — Armadillo
'A delicious fable, subtly given a new lease of life, absolutely fab!' — Read It Daddy
