On what planet have I been on? Hilary McKay has written four of the Casson family books, and I just find out on the last one? I LOVED IT. So English. So Wonderful. Made my day. (Now to read the other four!)

12/14: Made me a bit melancholy this time, but only because I will miss the Cassons.

April 2022: these are so lovely, like coming home in all the best ways.
