I was thrilled to believe that I had found a Thrush Green book that I hadn't read--or so I thought. When the book arrived, I was disappointed to discover that this is an omnibus reprint of two previously published Thrush Green books: _News from Thrush Green_ and _The School at Thrush Green_. The fact that Amazon did not disclose this information is disconcerting. I might have saved some money.

I could not agree more with the reader from New Hampshire. Itoo was thrilled to think here was a Miss Read I missed. Imagine mydisappointment when I realized I already had the two volumes...

It's hard to believe that over the past 35 years Miss Read has written 30 books about Thrush Green. While this isn't my favorite of the series, I have read it more than once and it definitely deserves considerable merit. Her characterization is well thought out and pays great attention to detail. I would recommend this book and the entire series to anyone who is looking for some light yet fulfilling reading.
