4.0 out of 5 stars Another Great Thriller!, May 15, 2003

S. Schwartz "romonko" (alberta canada) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Dolly and the Nanny Bird (Paperback)

These Dolly books are hard to find, but worth the effort. This one is an extremely whimsical story about a very talented trained Nanny. Oh how we all would love to have a Maggie Bee Nanny looking after our children. Every time I read a new selection in this series, I can't help thinking how good they would be if done in film. The stories are fast-moving, funny with lots of suspense. The characters that are in each book are wonderful. In this one we encounter Eskimos, anthropologists, a millionaire toy manufacturer, and lots of wonderful children and babies - and of course the inimitable Johnson Johnson. We also travel all over the place - Winnipeg Canada in the dead of winter, New york and Yugoslavia. We also see more of Dolly in this series. For those in the know, Dolly is a 52 foot luxury yacht. These books are a lot of fun to read, and I will be sorry when I've read my way through them all.

This review is from: Dolly and the Nanny Bird (Paperback)

Interesting diversion on Dorothy Dunnett's part, to her historical fiction, but for me not nearly as compelling,good,or wonderful as the historical novels Anthea Buchanan
