her grandmother Quotes

There are five packages, including one for her grandmother, which bears a red tag. But, when the labels on the other four get wet and smeared, Katie Morag goes ahead and haphazardly delivers them.

″...but from there she had to trudge by herself through the driving snowflakes to the Gwyntfa, the gray stone cottage where she lived alone with her grandmother, Mrs. Bowen.”

She later confesses to her grandmother, who helps her get the correct package to each recipient and doesn’t tattle on her to Katie’s parents. The open stretch of this busy Scottish island is an ideal setting for industrious Katie Morag.
