Wee Sir Gibbie of the Highlands
George MacDonald was one of the most captivating and best loved writers of the nineteenth century. He wrote stories for children, stories for grown-ups, poetry, fairy tales, and collections of short stories. But especially he wrote for the childlike in heart, and his books are a delight for readers of all ages.
Wee Sir Gibbie of the Highlands is the enchanting story of the seemingly destitute orphan, "wee Sir Gibbie," who though unable to speak lives a life of innocent love, goodness, and truth. A favorite of the streets of his Scottish town and never long in one place, tiny Gibbie's greatest joy lies in helping others.
After the tragic death of his titled but penniless father, Gibbie is the horror-stircken witness to a violent murder. His faith in humanity shaken, he flees the city in hopes of discovering a new life in the Highlands.
