THE COUNTRY CHILD is a semi-autobiographical story about a girl
growing up in the country before the First World War. Alison Uttley
has drawn on her own youth to produce memories so vivid and
nostalgic that you can almost smell the honeysuckle and hear the
owls calling at dusk. She writes about the small intense joys and
sorrows of life on a small farm: the fun of haymaking, the sadness
of favourite animals being slaughtered, and the close sweetness of
Christmas celebrations in the farmhouse kitchen. Also in A Puffin
Book: A Traveller in Time by Alison Uttley
