NOTES

What country is made up of 95 islands, invented the game of golf, and raised a warrior worthy of the name 'Braveheart'? Welcome to Scotland! In B is for Bagpipes: A Scotland Alphabet, Scottish native Eve Begley Kiehm gives an A-Z tour of the country that may be small in size but a giant in history and rich in tradition. Kick up your heels at a Highland dance, visit the statue of Greyfriar's Bobby as he stands guard near his master's grave, and finally dig into a dish of haggis with a side helping of 'tatties and neeps.' From the splendors of capital city Edinburgh to the stories of Robert Louis Stevenson to the gloomy waters of Loch Ness and its lonely 'Nessie,' the treasures of Scotland are revealed. Colorful artwork captures the proud spirit of its landscape and culture
