Good morning everyone!Hope you are well! Today I want to talk to you about Brownie! Fantastic creatures that populate the traditional Scottish stories, a bit grumpy, who do not like contact with humans despite being willing to help them with the boring chores every night in exchange for a cup of milk and porridge! Scotland is also the land that hosted me first for six months to study Scottish literature, and later saved me from the "Grey Men - and Women - who populate the Beautiful Country in which I had the (s)fortune to be born! People who follow only the law "Homo Homini Lupus, without even knowing in depth some elementary rules of their native language! Luckily I live in Scotland and my girls were born and will grow up in a more civilized country, where the DIGNITY of each human being is widely protected! If you want to know a brownie story told by the Dreaming Panda of the Cosmopolitan Family, all you have to do is buy a copy of the first book illustrated by CINNAMOM! https://www.authorhouse.com/en/bookstore/bookdetails/815029-a-gathering-of-tales-from-a-cosmopolitan-family
