Book excerpt: "Take a deep breath and prepare for a journey through all twelve days of Yuletide, with a cast of skaters skooshin, lassies birlin, sheep a-shooglin and the all-important five gowden rings. Inspired by the traditional verse, this adaptation features easy-to-understand (and pronounce) Scots words and creatures, including hoolets (owls), and bonnie doos (beautiful doves)"--
