It was a little book, just the kind I needed at the time I read it. I hope you like it if you read it.Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12136584654825212359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6892358786681938797.post-21111884259949957832013-04-24T19:35:55.571-04:002013-04-24T19:35:55.571-04:00Hi, Dodi.

I thought it almost seemed biographical, as though she inserted some of the things she'd learned while teaching as a teacher. She was very prolific! Thanks for visiting and leaving a comment.

The books are pure escapism and I love to travel back to old England and the quirky people of small village life. I especially enjoyed "A Fortunate Grandchild."<br /><br />Would highly suggest all of her books. Sadly, she has died and there will be no more to read, but I will enjoy rereading them again and again.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06727388843359260386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6892358786681938797.post-35906586633785885722013-04-17T17:02:51.807-04:002013-04-17T17:02:51.807-04:00I wish for clearer memories too.
