Rabbie's Rhymes Burns for Wee Folk

A beautifully illustrated Scots language collection of Robert Burns's best loved poetry is back in the form of the extremely popular lift-the-flap book, to inspire even the youngest budding poet in a simple, entertaining and colorful way.

'Fair fa yer honest sonsie face
Great chieftain o the pudding race'

Kids will delight in the hidden surprises within the pages, lifting the flaps to reveal where the moose is hiding and what the haggis has on its head, while singing along with parents and teachers to favorite Scottish tunes such as 'Red Red Rose' with Rabbie traveling alongside them through the story, ending up in a marvelous Burns Supper rendition of 'Auld Lang Syne'.
