Child Of St Kilda

A beautifully written and illustrated book by Beth Waters, who lives and works in her thatched cottage in Cambridge. 

Child of St Kilda follows the life of Norman John Gillies, one of the last children ever born on the Scottish archipelago of St Kilda, part of the westernmost isles of the Outer Hebrides. 

Entertaining for both parent and child alike, this book aims to answer those sought-after questions about St Kilda, like why the ancient way of life on the island suddenly ceased in 1930, where did the islanders go, and what became of Norman John?
