'There's a hole in my bagpipes, wee Hamish, wee Hamish,
There's a hole in my bagpipes, wee Hamish, a hole!
Then stitch it wee Lachie, wee Lachie, wee Lachie,
Then stitch it wee Lachie, wee Lachie, stitch it!
With what shall I stitch it, wee Hamish, wee Hamish?
With what shall I stitch it, wee Hamish, with what?'
A surreal and hilarious Scottish twist on a much-loved rhyme. Wee Hamish
tries to solve his bagpiping friend's difficulties with ever-more
brilliantly bizarre solutions involving a hungry stag, prickly thistles,
lumpy porridge, a dirty broadsword, a nervous red squirrel and a sleepy
Highland cow.
Kate McLelland, illustrator of best-selling picture book There was a
Wee Lassie Who Swallowed a Midgie, brings a Highland castle and its
cast of Scottish characters and animals to life in her bold and colorful
style. This quirky and fun picture book, created in Scotland, is a
unique adaptation of the classic rhyme There's a Hole in my Bucket.
