Janis Mackay, author of Once Upon a Lighthouse

  • "There’s a dell in the woods. Deep and dark, where pine trees grow thick."
  • "Uphill we rode, swiftly, through clouds of midges and spider webs, until we came to the edge of the woods."
  • Bridei's story of a world about to change forever was written by David Macphail.
  • Nicola Roy
  • "The lighthouse made it safe for passing ships and boats.... But for Rory the lighthouse was a friend that watched over him."
  • "The tide was like a postman delivering things to his part of the north of Scotland."
  • Janis Mackay
  • Daniel Cameron narrates Once Upon A Lighthouse. In the previous episode, hear him tell the story of Alex in The Explorers.
