Bookmaker Visit by Robert P.4

After milk break a book writer came in to talk to P3/4/5.  She was called Christine De Luca and at the same time Iris Sandison was talking to P6/7.  Christine gave us all a book each to keep it was ‘Mystery at da Laird’s Haa’ by Bjorn Sandison.  It was fun and I enjoyed it.  She read us some bits from the book and we read bits too.   It had a lot of Shetland Dialect. Here is some I know – Muckle (big) and Peerie (small) and I know some others.  She said we should be proud of knowing Shetland Dialect because it is special.  I am looking forward to reading some more when I take my book home.
