Customer Reviews

Amazing old-style retro fun!
This book truly is THE BEST,it shows you how to do almost anything, from needlework to great films to watch and books to read, gardening, yummy recipes and much much more. I say it is old fashioned but not in a boring old way. I love it. I cannot speak highly enough of it.It is great for all ages, i bet my mum wished she had a book like this when she was younger. If you like this book also read The girls book, Things to do with mum, possibly the big book of girl stuff, and the daring book for girls. I have only 4 final words. THIS BOOK IS BRILLIANT!!!!!!

Perfect Gift
