I read this book as a child and re-reading it sparked a lot of nostalgic joy.
It's a lovely little story with a profound sense of found family.
The book is very much a product of it's time and requires some critical reading but I still enjoyed it greatly.
listened to this audiobook while being told to k*ll myself on twitter because I said I hated Julian blackthorn.. not the greatest combo. I no longer have a twitter
A fantastic little book, the kind that makes you feel glad to read literature. It's a tale of change, of healing, of growing and finding happiness in the most simple way. In our modern world of depression and anxiety, classics like this will never lose their importance.
Very nice children's book. I learned some Yorkshire accent with it.
