‘They can tak’ oour lives but they cannae tak’ oour troousers!’ – The Wee Free Men, by Terry Pratchett.
The Wee Free Men, be it rightly said, is another one of those books that I am a shameless recommender of – and the first in a sequence of what are called children’s books (but actually have an awful lot to them). They feature – well, you will see what it is they’re featurin’ – but I dinnae think it’s givin’ too much away to say that it includes fairies (nay, pictsies) whose swords, so it is said, glow blue in the presence of lawyers, and who really appreciate the importance of freeeedoooom!
And who appreciate, furthermore, that freedom, as with so many other things, sometimes comes down to defending your trousers. (And readin’ really guid books! I can recommend a wee few, if ye’re so inclined …)
