SECONDARY  
 
Itchy Coo’s publications for secondary introduce young adults to exciting new literary experiences in Scots. Witness an Italian monk jumping off the battlements of sixteenth-century Stirling Castle in Tam o Shanter’s Big Night Oot. Dare to find out what’s in the back of the car in Des Dillon’s terrifying short story, Moor Baby.  Brave the Ned Storm with Gilbert McGlinchy in Hamish MacDonald’s The Girnin Gates. And celebrate the best of the Scots literary tradition with poetry by Robert Burns, Edwin Morgan and the Proclaimers collected for schools and the general reader in A Smoky Smirr o Rain.  For more images view our gallery.
