When I was 11 years old my Grandmother gave me a hardback copy of this book. It became my favourite book to read and re-read. Elizabeth Gouge writes such beautiful english and her storyline is cleverly composed. Some time ago my husband had a 'tidy up' and my original book got lost in our loft. So, I had to buy another copy so that I can still re-read it when the notion takes me. I have also given a copy to a friend.
