5.0 out of 5 stars
Wonderful, not to be missed!,

This review is from: HETTY & HARRIET (Hetty & Harriet Nrf) (Hardcover)
Fans of the Church Mice series will love this book about a Hen Odyssey across the British countryside. Hetty (a birdbrain) is convinced by her slightly older and marginally more intelligent (but rather impractical) friend Harriet that life would be better somewhere other than the barnyard. This takes them to increasingly worse places, including a fox hole (so nice and cosy), the Michelangelo shopping precinct (which seems to be entirely made up of shops belonging to the Scroggins family), and the local Lost Property office (where they are sold off by the Scroggins & Scroggins auction house).Fortunately they manage to excape the dastardly clutches of the Techno-Egg and Fowlfare organisations, and probably live happily ever after. This is a definite must-read for anyone who likes droll English humour, although it's a bit hard to find.

I love Graham Oakley! And this is another of his wonderful books for children from 9 to 99. Unlike his great "Church Mice" series, this is a stand alone story about 2 wonderfully silly chickens. If you've never read Graham Oakley, read this or any of his books. You're in for a delightful treat!

I was so happy to find this book for sale online, as it is now out of print. My copy is from the library, but still in great shape.The artwork is wonderful, and the author's skill at reaching both young and old alike is masterfully done. One of my favorite children's books.
