Description

Deep in the Scottish countryside lies the village of Aberfoyle, surrounded by the rolling hills and woodlands of the Trossachs. At its heart is Doon Hill, a place steeped in legend and myth. According to local lore, this is the domain of the Sidhe, or Faery Folk, who are said to inhabit the hill's woody knoll. Their story begins with Reverend Robert Kirk, a minister who was punished by being spirited away as a result of revealing their secrets. This event sets in motion a tale of gnomes, guardians of the oak trees, and their duty to care for sick animals and protect the forest woodlands. However, they also have a greatest enemy - owls - and a biggest hate - humans who fail to respect them. In this book, you'll encounter Hamish and his granny, as well as other characters, all living in harmony with nature on Doon Hill. Their lives are filled with joy and celebration, as they sing and dance to honor the forest gods.
