Wee Shona dreams magnificent dreams. Her busy day plays out in colour as she slumbers.
Folk songs sung to her as the sun sets add to the array of pleasant thoughts and images she sees and feels in her very own dream land.
To be ‘cooried’ is to be wrapped in warmth by those you hold dear – snug in the knowledge you are loved. Everyone in her life coming together with her in her dreams, confirms that very sentiment.
A welcome addition to every bedtime read.
This picture book is based on the incredible poet Jackie Kay’s own childhood and the songs she grew up with.
Jill Calder’s beautifully soft and colourful illustrations bring wee Shona’s story to life with every page turn.
The book also has a QR code for readers of all ages to watch an author video, and listen to song recordings by @peggyseegermusic, Claire Brown and Suzanne Bonnar.
