People had lived on these islands for over four thousand years, developing a thriving, tightly-knit society that knew nothing of crime or money, and took care of its weakest members without hesitation. At the mercy of the seasons and the elements, a unique lifestyle evolved, based around resilience, mutual trust and caring. What was it like to grow up in such harsh conditions? Why and how did this ancient way of life suddenly cease in 1930? Where did the islanders go, and what became of them? And what became of Norman John, child of St Kilda?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Beth Waters\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1786281880\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781786281883\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Child's Play International\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 64\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.37lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.90h x 9.10w x 0.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBulletin of Ctr for Child Bks\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/18\/2019 pg. 1","brand":"Beth Waters","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43994432078079,"sku":"9781786281883","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3f543f21-7aa9-4e06-8de9-1e6164abe404.jpg?v=1683330116","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/child-of-st-kilda-beth-waters-9781786281883","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
