Following the immense success of the Hebridean diaries and address books, Birlinn added a birthday book to its attractive range of Hebridean stationery. Illustrated throughout with Mairi Hedderwick’s beautiful sketches of the Hebrides, this large-format, hardback book is the perfect way to remember birthdays of friends and family. It also makes an excellent gift.

Mairi Hedderwick was born in Gourock, Scotland. At seventeen she took a job as a mother’s help on the Isle of Coll in the Hebrides, beginning a life-long love affair with islands and their small communities. Mairi’s island world is delightfully reflected in the imaginary island of Struay where her perennially popular Katie Morag stories are set. As well as creating children’s books Mairi writes and illustrates travel books for adults. She also illustrated the acclaimed Janet Reachfar books, published by Birlinn. She lives on the island of Coll.
