Wonderful escapism
Miss Read is my favourite author of all time. For me her books are like a step out of the frenzy of life in to the calm of Thrush Green.
Beautiful simple stories of country folk living a quiet life as the seasons come and go.
Carole Boyd narrates perfectly and has a lovely voice to listen to.

Excellent
A classic....Carole reads it so well a perfect match for a story that could be in Ambridge....
It harks back to a gentle way of life..just before technology ruined it.. the last days of village life and village school education.

happy reminder of my childhood
Miss Read books were my mother's favourites, I came to then only recently after a lifetime of murder mysteries and far too horrifically accurate historical reading. I wanted something gentler and found it perfectly here in Miss Read I went to a small school in the late 50's so instantly felt comfortable. Beautifully written, it flows along with nothing to scare me, life yes, but without over dramatising. And the performance was perfect too, she reminded me instantly of my teachers back then. All together a delightful read.
