'The Lass and the Quine' is the first original LGBT+ inclusive children's book published in the Scots language. Here is an illustrated storybook for children of primary school age based on the poem 'The Lass and the Quine' by Ashley Douglas. It is a new Scots fairy tale that challenges those you know in a clever and enjoyable way. The story concerns 'a lass and a quine whae are awfie different in ivery wey, but whae faw heid ower heels in luve - meetin a wheen animals o the forest alang the wey!' It has a timeless feel, but what makes it so special is that the love story is one between a girl and a princess, not a girl and a prince.
