The Mouse Who Attended the Last Supper and Other Stories [Paperback]

Barbara Hocknell (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: December 12, 2007

This collection of short stories covers a wide variety of situations, from the overtly religious connotations of 'The mouse who attended the Last Supper' and 'The Damascus Road', to the gentle snapshots of family life and neighbourly love, in 'The Garden Seat', 'The Piano', and 'Mr Leversham's New Suit'. Through the characters, portrayed with sensitivity and a deep appreciation of the better side of human nature, these stories will leave you with a heartening sense of the goodness of ordinary people. Barbara Hocknell was born in Huddersfield and now lives in the village of Almondbury on the outskirts of the town. After World War II, she trained as a teacher and subsequently taught in several different schools. Until her retirement, she spent many years teaching children with special needs.
