Katie Bairdie had a coo,
Black and white aboot the mou.
Wasna that a dainty coo?
Dance, Katie Bairdie.

Mini Katie's Coo is the compact format of Itchy Coo's popular first publication specially for babies and very young children, Katie's Coo, a delightful board book illustrated in full colour throughout and containing some much-loved traditional Scots rhymes along with a few that are less well known.

Parents and grandparents will enjoy singing or chanting the words to babies and toddlers while the bairns will love the combination of Scots words and sounds with the bright and simple illustrations by award-winning artist Karen Sutherland (Animal ABC, A Moose in the Hoose, Eck the Bee). Rhymes featured include favourites like "The Three Craws", "Katie Bairdie", "Wee Willie Winkie" and "Ally Bally Bee".

Developed in consultation with "Craigmillar Books for Babies" and the Scottish Book Trust, Mini Katie's Coo is a safe, fun introduction for young children to easy Scots rhymes.
