William Henry Forester, a Scottish poet and children’s author now residing in New England, is celebrated for his reflective and lyrical exploration of memory, place, and the enduring traces of time. Born in the Scottish Highlands, his early life was shaped by the rugged beauty of his homeland, which continues to inspire his work. After emigrating to America, Forester’s poetry began to bridge two worlds, capturing the heartache and resilience of migration. His acclaimed poetry collections, including Now That I Am Gone and The Ashes of Dreams, delve into themes of loss, renewal, and the quiet persistence of what we leave behind. With a style rooted in vivid imagery and emotional depth, Forester’s work remains a poignant reflection on belonging and the universal human experience. In addition to his poetic works, Forester is also beloved for his enchanting children’s books, which are crafted with gentle language, whimsical characters, and heartwarming narratives. His stories are written and illustrated to support early readers and are centered on positive family values, kindness, empathy, and friendship. Notable among these works are The Wee Humble Bumblebee, The Lonely Lighthouse, and the whimsical tales of Bert the Gull, whose coastal adventures inspire curiosity and laughter in young readers. Each story invites children into a world of imagination while gently reinforcing core values that help shape compassionate, thoughtful individuals. Whether writing for adults or children, William Henry Forester’s voice is one of quiet wisdom and enduring grace—a storyteller whose work speaks to the soul across generations. Uilleam Eanraig Forester (William Henry Forester) rugadh ann an Inbhir Nis, Alba, ann an 1950. Tha e na bhàrd cliùiteach, sgrìobhadair chloinne, agus sgeulaiche le cridhe làn gliocas is cianalas. Tha e a’ fuireach a-nis air cladach àlainn Maine, far a bheil guth na mara agus sgeulachdan na dùthcha fhathast beò na sgrìobhadh. Tha a bhàrdachd — mar a chithear ann an cruinneachaidhean leithid Now That I Am Gone agus The Ashes of Dreams — làn faireachdainn, cuimhneachan, call is dòchas. Tha e a’ measgachadh bòidhchead nàdurra na Gàidhealtachd le brìgh domhainn is breithneachail mu bheatha is bàs, gaol is cridhe briste. A bharrachd air a bhàrdachd, tha Uilleam gu mòr measail air feadh an t-saoghail airson a leabhraichean cloinne. Tha na sgeulachdan aige làn mìorbhaileachd, caoimhneis is gliocas ciùin. Am measg nam faclan as gràdhaiche tha The Wee Humble Bumblebee, The Lonely Lighthouse, agus na tachartasan èibhinn aig Bert the Gull — sgeulachdan a bheir gàire is blàths do chridhe gach pàiste. Bidh a sgeulachdan gu tric suidhichte ri taobh na mara, le beathaichean, eunlaith, agus leasanan sìmplidh mu chàirdeas, fèin-spèis, agus coibhneas. Ge b’ e bàrdachd do dh’inbhich no sgeulachdan do chloinn, tha guth Uilleam Eanraig Forester làn blàths is seun — guth Gàidhealach a tha a’ bruidhinn ris an anam tro gach linn.
