Book excerpt: A nostalgic collection on rural schools, childhood and English country life from the much-loved author of VILLAGE SCHOOL. From organising the school summer fete...

I shall know if he still feels like it - me too! - after we've met'.

She was born, in fact, when I was struggling to write my first book and needed a village schoolmistress as the narrator.'

Book Synopsis Chronicles of Fairacre by : Miss Read
Download or read book Chronicles of Fairacre written by Miss Read and published by . This book was released on 2005-09-15 with total page 595 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first three novels in this beloved series introduce the village of Fairacre with its handful of thatched cottages, the church, the school - and its schoolmistress, Miss Read. In Fairacre, everyone knows everyone else's business and, for the most part, it is a harmonious place - even for the likes of Mrs Pringle, the gloomy, irascible school cleaner. With a wise heart and a discerning eye, Miss Read guides us through the seasons and introduces a cast of unforgettable characters and a world of drama, romance and humour, all within a stone's throw of the school. Charm and wit blend in these three novels to give a refreshingly acute and astringent view of life in the country.
