Biorachan Beag agus Biorachan M�r: Sgeulachd thraidiseanta air a dealbhadh le Eimilidh Dh�mhnallach

by Eimilidh DhÃÂÂmhnallach (Illustrator)

Overview

Chaidh Biorachan Beag is Biorachan Mór a-mach do'n choille, a bhuain chnothan...ach cha sguireadh Biorachan Beag gan ithe! Bha Biorachan Mór ag amas air leasan a theagasg dha a charaid gionach, sanntach, agus sin mar a thòisich sreath de bhuilean gun dùil. Air aon àm bha an sgeulachd air tè den fheadhainn a b' ainmeile do chloinn air feadh na Gàidhealtachd, bho Alba gu Eilean Cheap Bhreatainn, Alba Nuadh.

This is the Nova Scotia Gaelic orthography edition. A separate Gaelic Orthographic Conventions (GOC) edition is also available. Big Biorachan and Little Biorachan went out to pick nuts... but Little Biorachan wouldn't stop eating them! Big Biorachan set out to teach his greedy friend a lesson, unleashing a chain of unintended consequences. This traditional Scottish Gaelic tale was once the most widely-known children's story in the Gaelic world. The Gaels brought the tale with them from the Highlands of Scotland to Nova Scotia and passed it down in oral traditon. Illustrator Emily MacDonald's charming illustrations accompany the traditional text, reimagining the tale in 19th-century Cape Breton. Text in Scottish Gaelic.
