Scotty and the Scotties

A mischievous picture book featuring a delightful pack of Scottish terriers with a light seek-and-find activity and a twist that readers won’t see coming.

In Scotty's family, once you're a Scottie, you're always a Scottie. And so that means, when one builds a sandcastle, they all build sandcastles. When one rolls on the ground, they all roll on the ground. Don’t get Scotty wrong—he loves hispack. But when everyone looks the same, acts the same, and does all the same things, can you ever truly be your own Scottie?

The Scotties may take their “all for one and one for all” attitude a little too far sometimes, but when trouble comes for this adorable troop of Scottish terriers, Scotty is reminded that family is forever.

Packed full of surprises, Scotty and the Scotties isn’t just an irresistible story—it’s also a fun search-and-find!
