Welcome to Litsy!

Brilliant book.
Nature and people, a patch if park and lonely characters.
Really gentle.

A 9-year-old child steals a book about the supernatural from a charity shop bin:
"Once he got it home he'd found he could not escape from its terrifying pull; that night, it was as if all the terrors on its pages might burst out of it and fly howling about the room."

My next door neighbour just gave me this! Months ago I recommended At Hawthorn Time and she liked it so much she ordered (from England) another by same author. Book didn't arrive, so they sent another. 3 months later, original package showed up. Lucky for me. 😀
