Customer Reviews

stories for adults to enjoy
I enjoyed reading some of these stories, they give a feeling of old England. Most though are stories for adults to enjoy rather than for children. They are mostly atmospheric descriptive stories, nothing very magical. A couple have a scary eerie feel...better for halloween than Christmas!!

up to date and still great Christmas reading
