Hedley's Celtic Adventure

Not only do I enjoy reading this story to my grandchildren but it brings me so much pleasure also. The dialogue between the characters and the author's ability to take you into their burrows and natural habitat is a joy. The gentleness of the grandfather and the setting of the countryside and the farm area clearly show the author has brought fond memories from her childhood into adulthood which she so readily shares with us. The illustrations enhance the already vivid word picutes the author has already painted for us. The introduction of Hedley to us from her first book and the continuation of his adventures through her imagination makes this book by Valerie Walker one I not only keep on my own shelf but also keep copies on my grandchildren's shelf to read over and over.
