ScotlandsFest: Farmyard Follies

Mathematical sheep? Navigating dogs? Architectural pigs? If you go down to the farm today you’re in for a big surprise! Helen Percy, the Highland Shepherdess, will delight all nature and animal lovers with her books Skirly Crag and Whistlebare. The creatures that share her kitchen – wild or tame, house trained or destructive – will steal your heart. But be prepared to cry as well as to laugh. She brought her dog, her duck, and her horse to the launch of Skirly Crag in 2025, so put on your wellies and come along to the farmyard!
