A delightful book of heartwarming short stories, the perfect Christmas read. Yes, you know the endings will be happy but there are still a few surprises when you take off the wrapping paper (and one shocking act of violence that really brings home how times have changed for the better). Stella Gibbons has the talent to draw the reader into her characters' lives even in a few brief pages.

Put into my Christmas Bookbox.

This has come back to me in the bookbox. I have a thought about where it will travel next.

To the finder, enjoy, and I hope you will write a journal entry so that previous readers will know that this book has been found. It is always a joy to find where it has gone. You can remain anonymous but if you are interested in joining (free with no strings) please consider using greenbadger as your referrer.
I don't get anything from this except for the pleasure of watching my books travel and knowing that they are giving pleasure to others.
Keep the book for as long as you like, and when you are done with it please pass it on to a friend, or set it out "in the wild" for someone else to find as you did. When you pass this book along, please make a release note to let others know where you left it. Thank you.

I received it by buying it as a used book on Amazon. But I'll send it out into the wild myself.
Yes, it's an enjoyable read; some stories better than others. The title story was disappointing but I suppose you wouldn't expect it to be as good as Stella Gibbons original novel about Cold Comfort Farm, which was brilliant!

Well, here's my first onward release.
