Oh yes! I loved all of Betty MacDonalds books. Now I have to go and revisit them. It seems as though my autumn reading is sorted.weenancyinAmerica said:@Coxy11 - One of my favorite books to read when I was young was Betty MacDonald's book Onions in the Stew, written about her life on Vachon Island. Always wanted to go there, but the closest I came was taking the train to Canada and seeing the islands in the distance.6 -
@Coxy11 great photo, have a fantastic time!@dp1, our DGc loved Julia Donaldson
We have a little video of DGS pretending to be the Gruffalo, and we used to take them on a walk through the big trees to hunt for him. Happy memories Hope they enjoy their holiday.:heartsmil 'A woman is like a teabag: You never know her strength until you drop her in hot water'. (Eleanor Roosevelt)4
