Village School

<strong>The first novel in the beloved Fairacre series <em>Village School</em> introduces us to the remarkable schoolmistress Miss Read and her lovable group of students who with a mixture of skinned knees and smiles are just as likely to lose themselves as their mittens... <br/><br/></strong>Welcome to the English village of Fairacre: a handful of thatch-roofed cottages a church the school the promise of fair weather friendly faces and good cheer--at least most of the time. Here everyone knows everyone else's business and the villagers like each other anyway (even Miss Pringle the irascible gloomy cleaner of Fairacre School). <br/><br/>With a wise heart and a discerning eye Miss Read guides us through one crisp glistening autumn in her village and introduces us to a cast of unforgettable characters and a world of drama romance and humor all within a stone's throw of the school. By the time winter comes you'll be nestled snugly into the warmth and wit of Fairacre and won't want to leave.
