Because of our inability to recognise our climatic shortcomings from the outset, arrangements for outdoor jollities get completely out of hand ...to the sometimes rather odd passions of childhood I collect stones with holes in them Miss Read captures the essence of rural life, and in particular of village schools, as only she can. This collection is interspersed with extracts from her letters and diaries (never before published).
