Based on real events that happened in the early 1700s. At first I was pretty frustrated with this story because it seemed so small and yet it had a lot of heart and I came to really appreciate it.

While sometimes sad or dark, I mainly found this book incredibly cute. I was completely transported to a bleak rock in the middle of nowhere with Scottish boys and nothing but birds to live on. Based on a true story and fitting so perfectly with my image of forlorn Scottish places, the set was complete for me to lose myself in.
