If you want nostalgia, and something to give you happy thoughts as you go to bed, then read Miss Read's stories of Thrush Green, the characters are charming. I couldn't put this book down as I became so involved with the villagers goings on, I needed to find out more about their lives. Reading the Thrush Green stories is like having a soothing "cuppa" close by !

wonderful warm book it gives you the smells and the wonderul way they did and believed in things after the world war. people caring for people and their pets. so join the warmth of a loving sitting room with the kettle on the hob and read.

I have always enjoyed every book by Miss Read. Her series of Thrush Green books, and her Fairacre series are always gently entertaining. Its like coming home to good friends. No sex, very little violence (the odd knock on the head), just lots of every day happenings in a village you'd love to live in, with neighbors you'd always want to have. These are the kinds of books you need to read before sleeping. Guaranteed to bring on good dreams!
Soothing gentle reads, with characters you know and love.

We listened the this tape on a road trip. My 9 y.o. daughter and I enjoyed it very much. We talked about the unusual characters and wondered what they would do next!!!

I just love all of Miss Read's books. My mother has quite a few of them and I read all she had when I was still at home. I purchased this one for her Christmas present last year, but before I wrapped it I had to read it! It didn't disappoint me. Whenever I'm in need of a comforting, heartwarming story I pull one of Miss Read's books off the shelf. They're perfect for a cozy evening by the fire.

I love Miss Read's books, and this one is completely charming. The only reason I do not give it 5 stars is that this edition (kindle) is littered with typographical errors. So many misspellings take away from the pleasure of reading! Miss Read would not be pleased.

My wife has just discovered the Thrush Green books and really loves them. They'r like Agatha Christie's Miss Marple books without the murders.

I have enjoyed every Miss Read book I have ever found, whether in the secondhand bookstore, the library, or now, on Amazon. This one had slipped through the cracks, and I felt lucky to find it. Of course, I was not disappointed by another trip to Thrush Green to visit with the friends.
