Pirican Pic and Pirican Mor

---

Delve into a charming, traditional Scottish nursery tale with Pirican Pic and Pirican Mor, playfully retold by renowned storyteller Hugh Lupton and whimsically illustrated by Yumi Heo. The story centers on two birds, Pirican Pic and Pirican Mor, who go out foraging for food. When Pirican Mor finds a delicious walnut, he greedily gobbles it all up by himself without sharing, causing Pirican Pic to fly up into an oak tree in distress. Realizing his mistake, Pirican Mor sets off on a comical, cascading quest to make amends. He must navigate a cumulative series of requests—asking the oak tree for a twig, the ax for wood, the smith for steel, and so forth—before he can bring comfort back to his friend. Packed with rhythmic repetition and quirky, stylized artwork, this lively tale teaches young readers the values of sharing, honesty, and forgiveness in a fun, cumulative storytelling format.
