Notes

Two of Annand's celebrated poetry collections for children, each signed and with additional material. Loosely inserted are two further poems by Annand: The typed text of the poem Mavis, which is the first poem in the first collection, and the source for the titles of both books, which has been signed by the poet; and a manuscript copy of the poem Mince and Tatties, signed and dated Xmas 1978. This latter poem saw print in a further volume of verse for the juvenile market in 1979, 'Thrice to Show Ye'.
