Biographical note
ANN SCOTT MONCRIEFF was born in Orkney in 1910 and died in Nairn in 1943. During her short life she was a journalist, writer and a poet who was immortalized by Edwin Muir in his poem ‘To Ann’. This is a republication for school-age children of a neglected, talented Scottish female writer of the 1930s.
Firkin and the Grey Gangsters is a collection of four tales in which animals are the heroes.
Firkin and the Grey Gangsters was in 1936 a metaphor for the fear of takeover by corporate America – Firkin is a young red squirrel who leads his people in a battle against a horde of grey squirrel
invaders from America. Firkin speaks in Scots.
The Sheep who wasn’t a Sheep is about the thoughts going through the head of a sheep, swimming
between one Outer Isle and the other.
The White Drake is a farmyard drake in Perthshire learning about flying.
