Why read it?
1 author picked Wee Macgreegor as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
As an 11-year-old, I read this book for the first time and thought it was the funniest book ever written. I cried and laughed at several parts.
The dialogue sparkles with old Glasgow wit and wisdom. John Joy Bell’s love of the Scots dialect is evident throughout. The book is a collection of tales featuring the titular character, a wonder-filled wee boy growing up in Glasgow during the 1930s.
The writing is endearingly innocent and playful. It’s a glorious snapshot of Scottish life a century ago.
From Mark's list on most innovative Scottish books.
