Prix Jeunesse Award Winner 1982 with Isla St Clair
Farmers and Fishermen
Isla returns to Findochty, a tiny fishing village in the North of Scotland, to tell the stories and sing the songs of farmers and fisherfolk among whom she grew up. She discovers that a fishergirl would think nothing of gutting 20,000 herring a day, and that a ploughman and his horse would have walked 11 miles by the time they had ploughed three-quarters of an acre.
