A rich mixture of Blethers, Bairns, Bogles, Beasties, Ballads and Bourachs, drawn from the the range of languages and dialects of Scotland. Experience the sounds and candences of the Scots language by reading aloud the poems contained in this anthology. A book to be enjoyed not just by children, but by all. Includes poems from well-established poets, as well as anonymous ballads and playground doggerel. Illustrated with archive photography.
Anither Hantle O Verse
Anither Hantle o Verse illustrates the rich variety of language in Scotland with its wonderful sounds that roll off the tougue: Clishmaclavers, Nichtfa, Cheils, Widder, Traivlin, Sennachie and Wir Leid. Language for everyone to enjoy. “It should be in every school library - and indeed, adult library - in Scotland, for there is not a bad poem within its covers. There is a variety of delights for the readers of all ages, and for which all poetry-lovers should be grateful, showing once again that the ‘guid Scots tongue’ is not deid yet - and not by a long way!” Maurice Lindsay
