Our City — Julie Bertagna

A girl discovers a magical world of storytelling beneath a secret trapdoor in Muirhouse library. An ancient piper emerges from the sea at Portobello, to challenge the City Council. Three hapless witches circle above the Old Town, failing to do good deeds. And at school, a bully is tricked into taking the blame for a crime he didn't commit. Familiar and fantastical, comic and thought-provoking, Our City brings together ten of Scotland's top children's writers, with specially commissioned stories inspired by Edinburgh. Our City is published in support of the OneCity Trust, Edinburgh's leading social inclusion charity.
