Àííîòàöèÿ: Trouble brews in the tiny country village of Fairacre when it is discovered that Farmer Miller's Hundred Acre Field is slated for real estate development. Alarming rumors are circulating, among them the fear that the village school may close. The endearing schoolmistress Miss Read brings her inimitable blend of affection and clear-sighted candor to this report, in which a young girl finds her first love, an older woman accepts a new role in life, and the impassioned battle to save the village from being engulfed is at the forefront of every villager's mind.

Àííîòàöèÿ: Miss Quinn liked being left to her own devices - especially at Christmas. So it was with some foreboding that she agreed to look after her brother's three young children while his wife was in hospital. However, Miss Quinn soon finds her stern sense of duty undermined by the preparations for Christmas, the infectious enthusiasm of the children and the unexpected arrival of an old flame. The serenity of "Miss Read's" books, strengthened by a sturdy sense of reality, defies imitation.

Àííîòàöèÿ: Miss Read heard about the sale of Tyler's Row from Mrs Pringle and before long Fairacre was alive with rumours. Why were the present owners selling? Was it true that a football pools winner was about to buy it? Had Tyler's Row been condemned or was it to be restored?
