Title The Scotch Twins
Credits Produced by Lynn Hill and Luana Rodriquez. HTML version by Al Haines.
Summary "The Scotch Twins" by Lucy Fitch Perkins is a children's novel written in the early 20th century. The book centers on twins Jean and Jock Campbell, who live in a little gray house in the picturesque Scottish Highlands. The story follows their daily adventures and responsibilities as they navigate life in their rural home and face conflicts with the local gamekeeper, Angus Niel, as well as the threat of losing their family home. At the start of the novel, the reader is introduced to Jean's fierce dedication to household duties, as she urgently wakes her brother Jock for their morning chores. Their father, Robin Campbell, the local shepherd, is a central figure who balances work and family life. As the children go about their chores, the dynamic between them provides a charming glimpse into their personalities and their bond as siblings. The narrative hints at broader issues, such as the struggle against Angus Niel and the looming threat of losing their home due to new developments in the region, setting the stage for both personal and communal conflict in their lives.
