Isla of Scotland — The Girl Who Brings Everyone Home
Isla of Scotland — The Girl Who Brings Everyone Home
Age: 7 Region: Europe
Isla has been told several times that she cannot keep every animal she finds.
She understands the words individually.
Together, they make no sense.
“What if it needs me?”
“That doesn't mean it can live in the house.”
“What if it's cold?”
“No.”
“Hungry?”
“No.”
“Lonely?”
Her father hesitates.
Isla sees it.
Weakness.
She files this information away for later.
Isla lives where the hills roll green beneath enormous skies and the wind has absolutely no respect for hairstyles.
She loves it.
She knows which field holds the sheep.
Which stone wall has the best blackberries.
Where the little stream gets deep enough to fill your boots if you aren't careful.
She is frequently not careful.
And she knows the animals.
Not just the cows.
Which cow.
There's Morag, who likes having her forehead scratched.
Angus, who pretends not to.
And Bonnie, who once chased Isla's father halfway across a field after he tried to move her calf.
Isla still considers this one of Bonnie's finest moments...
Then one cold morning, Isla hears something.
A soft sound from the far side of the field.
She follows it.
There, tucked beside an old stone wall, is a Highland calf.
Small.
Shaggy.
Alone...
Her Dream: Isla dreams of becoming a veterinarian and caring for animals large and small.
Her Wonder: “How does an animal know when it has found someone safe?”
