About Us

The Bothy Bookshop is the online shop for The Bothy Publishing established in 2002
originally as a publisher of cards.

Then is 2003 my eldest daughter Lisa asked me to write a children's story
so the Lisa's Garden range of children's books began!

The characters grew out of the first book 'The Bold Worm'.
Soon five determined eco warriors took on a life of their own!

My stories encourage young and old alike to consider the importance of the smallest creatures
and our own role in caring for the environment. And they will definitely make you smile.
