The sea for breakfast / Lillian Beckwith ; illustrated by Douglas Hall

Description:

***Lillian Beckwith's settling in on the island of Bruach*** and having a croft of her own, is the basis of these comic adventures. Adapting to a totally different way of life provides many excuses for humour and the eccentric cast of characters guarantees there is never a dull moment on Bruach. ***In one story, beachcombing yields a strange find. In another a Christmas party results in a riotous night's celebration.*** **I haven't laughed so much since Whisky Galore''*--EVENING NEWS (fr. Cvr. )***
