Críticas:

"Ideal for children with Scottish heritage, families and those wanting to know more about other cultures."- School Days Magazine "The lively illustrations are a superb part of these books and they will engage children's attention. It would be good to use these books together, to see where the similarities are and to discuss the differences. This book ends with a list of regions and an annotated map of Scotland."- Parents in Touch "Explains traditions and events in a way children can understand." - Scots News
