The Well at the World's End Reviews

'For younger readers this collection of 35 brief stories is the best source for simple versions of the classic folk tales of Scotland. They come from all parts. These renderings are clear and basic. Though contracted in length, they are far from prettified in content. Overall, they retain some primitive strangeness from their originals, vigorous but occasionally unfeeling or downright savage. This collection is for dipping into but it can also offer stimulus for drama, art and music in school.' -- Treasure Island: A guide to Scottish fiction for young readers aged 10-14, Summer 2003
