A Christmas novel from the Queen of family saga, Sheila Newberry.
A full of life story which will take you back to the early 20th century when war was at Europe's doorstep and how people did their best * 27 Book Street *
A heart warming tale * Echoes in an Empty Room *
It is a sweet story that is nicely written * The Avid Reader *
This heartfelt story of poor Cora's ordeal is a moving Christmas tale * The People's Friend *
I love the setting of this read1936 London, doesn't get much better than that! (...) However, it is a heartfelt story which leaves you feeling all warm and fuzzy. A good read for Christmas * Reecaspieces *
Beautifully written... This is definitely a story that pulls at the heartstrings. The entire time I was routing for Cora and wishing that every bad turn was followed by a good one. * One More Chapter *
Sheila Newberry was born in Suffolk and spent a lot of time there both before and during the war. She wrote her first 'book' before she was ten - all sixty pages of it - in purple ink. Her family was certainly her inspiration and she was published for most of her adult life. She spent forty years living in Kent with her husband John on a smallholding. She had nine children, twenty-two grandchildren and twelve great-grandchildren. Sheila retired back to Suffolk where she lived until she passed away in 2020.
