I came across this book and gave it to my Grand Children who absolutely enjoyed it and are always returning to read it again and again. The younger two ask for it to be read to them. Personally, it brought back so many happy memories on my childhood having been born in Africa. No I Pads, Television, telephone, mobiles. We played outdoors with all the neighbors of different religion and backgrounds. We observed the building, landscapes and wondered at how nature was so beautiful. Thank you Anne.
