But one wild and windy night the Gruffalos Wean ignores her fathers warning and tiptoes out into the snow. After all, the Muckle Mad Moose doesnt really exist...does he? When Itchy Coos Scots version of The Gruffalo was published in 2012 it immediately became a Scottish childrens bestseller. Now, in the same format and using the same rich Scots vocabulary that has thrilled thousands of readers, the sequel is here. The Gruffalo books are among the most popular childrens titles ever published, and James Robertsons Scots translations of them capture their warmth and excitement while adding a special Scottish dimension that weans and grown-ups alike just love.
