We waved to the baker - Andrew Arbuckle

"I wished I had asked Mum to buy my most recent favourite food, a raisin-filled slice of cake that the baker called a 'fly cemetery'. This was rather a strange name because I never saw any dead flies when I was eating it."We Waved to the Baker is an evocative and heart-warming collection of stories from Andrew Arbuckle's youth in Fife. Through the fresh gaze of childhood, he depicts the rugged hard work of life on the farm, while capturing the essence of growing up in a boisterous family and close rural community. We follow the young Andrew as he deals with the trials and tribulations of school, older brothers and plucking chickens, while throwing in as much mischief as possible.
