Scottish Reading List for Children, Teens and Adults
The downloadable PDF is a suggested reading list of books by Scottish authors or about Scottish themes for children, teens and adults, courtesy of the Saint Andrew Society of Colorado. Some titles are listed in more than one category because reading abilities, maturity levels and interest areas vary among age groups. The list was compiled by Cindy Murphy, Keith Schrum and Ken McIntosh, with input from other Scottish Book Club and Saint Andrew Society of Colorado members. Happy reading…Aye!
NOTE: Not all of these books have been read by the list contributors. It is strongly recommended that adults preview these books for suitability for recommending and gifting to family and friends
