Enjoyed this jolly little adventure with the famous five… with a proper starring role for Timmy!!

I loved this series as a kid and it‘s been great revisiting them again!

I loved so many things about this: irrepressible Selina, her pony named Haggis, the food descriptions, the Scottish setting, and a goose named Big Wullie! The basic plot: Selina befriends a crusty old farmer when her pony keeps “planting” himself in said farmer‘s turnip field.
Selina is kind of a misfit—both her mishaps & her soft heart for outsiders are endearing. The exploration of what it means to take care of others, even when you and they ⤵️

Rain on The Scarecrow
Blood on the Plow.
This song says it all about farmers and their dedication to feeding us.

My spouse is not here to see what #nelson did—she is the gardener in our house—but I think it‘s a little bit hilarious. He did just what he does on the couch with all of his blankets, keeps at it until it‘s juuuusssttt right!
It‘s not even that warm right now!

I very clearly remember reading the Mallory Towers series when I was a child, but at some point in my life, for a long time, I conflated it with the Chalet School series. A couple of years ago, I tried to find the Mallory Towers book that included a visit to Oktoberfest, only to find that it was actually one of the Chalet School books that I was thinking about!
