Title: It's like a "MISS READ" mystery!!!
Product review: In 1905, in this absorbing story of village life, England's Lake District villagers are (with a fair amount of tizzy gossip) eagerly anticipating the arrival of the new owner of Hill Top Farm. Charms and irritations of life, in this small country village, are cleverly written and Albert gives the reader glimpses of Beatrix Potter's biography with a mixture of truth and whimsical fiction. Ms. Potter did purchase Hill Top Farm, bringing with her two bunnies, a hedgehog and mouse. They, along with the motley village cats and one rascally dog, delightfully talk to each other!The cast of endearing and eccentric characters are brought together in this (the first of a series of eight) gentle mystery. Fans of Dora Saint ("Miss Read") and Rita Mae Brown will find the anticipated series thoroughly enjoyable. I don't compare authors... I just LOVE'em!The next book in the series "The Tale of Holly How" is coming in July, 2005.
