Travel on the ferry to Struay to meet one of the best-loved characters in children’s books – Katie Morag McColl. She may live on a tiny, weather-beaten island, but there’s plenty of mischief to get up to, and Katie Morag is always up to something! Two American children come with their mum to discover their roots in Scotland… but the island is not to their liking. Katie Morag can’t believe how spoiled they are – and the visitors can’t believe how few shops Struay has! But as they get caught up in a treasure trail, Katie Morag and the visitors soon learn that appearances can deceive… Meet Eriska the horse and the mischievous Struay cats, stumble across ancient ghosts in spooky places, and help Katie Morag find the answers to the riddles.
"Katie Morag and her American chums are swinging pirate cutlasses, bouncing about and leading us in a jolly song about hunting for treasure. Eager tots are on their feet, waving their arms and "yo-ho-ho-ing" along… A lively, lovingly-presented wee show about making new friends and not judging people (or places) by appearances.” Mary Brennan Glasgow Herald
“Robin Peoples' graphic storybook sets - post office, pier, croft, castle and ferry leaving for Oban - bring little nods and ripples of approval from the tiny-tot audience…”
