Review
'This haunting story for young readers blends folktale and quaintly comic fiction, and its evocation of a distant way of life fits well within its atmosphere of fable.' -- Treasure Islands: A guide to Scottish fiction for young readers aged 10-14, Summer 2003 'Lavinia Derwent has a rare gift for writing stories which not only appeal to children but with which they instantly identify.' -- Aberdeen Evening Express 'Lavinia Derwent involves her young readers closely with the characters in Sula and keeps them on tenterhooks for the next adventure.' -- Books in Scotland 'We have both enjoyed this book. Gwenan because it has some of her favourite subjects -- animals, drawing and islands -- and for myself I enjoyed this relatively gentle story of a small community living on a remote Scottish island.' -- Susan Bain with Gwenan (age 8), Education Otherwise
