Customer Reviews

Daisy Fay and the Miracle Man
Once again, this is a Fannie Flagg novel that ticks all the right boxes.
It is written from the perspective of Daisy Fay, a young girl growing up in a small town on the Mississippi coast.
Her life is turbulent from the start, and she is always getting into some kind of trouble, but she maintains a sassy and humorous attitude.

Once I'd started reading this book, I couldn't put it down. It's wonderful!

the most amazing book ever
Daisy fay and the miracle man is THE best book in the world. I first read it when I was 11 and have re-read it again and again for well over ten years. It's hilarious and will make you laugh until you cry. It's very difficult to put down because its full of one adventure after another. Daisy is a wonderful character, with a father somewhat like the hapless Al Bundy from 'Married with Children,'always getting her (and himself)into scrapes but with a heart of gold. It apeals to all ages. Treat yourself and buy it for the best read you'll ever have!

A Beautiful book
This book takes the form of a journal of a young girl. She records the details of her life as a child through to early adulthood. It is a beautiful, yet sad book. Her circumstances and the people in her life could leave her embittered but she never loses her innocent charm and acceptance of all that life holds. As is typical when we see things through the eyes of a child, there are loads of really funny moments but many others that will make you weep.
