Memories...

A long time ago, when I was a little boy, one of my teachers would read a book after lunch to us, as we ate our ice cream. She was an English teacher who was also English and we would bring in a book for her to read. One day I brought in this one and we listened to her, half an hour a day, with her lovely voice till, I assume it only took a week, it was done. I think she enjoyed it also - a story set in an English village by an English author. For only a 133 pages this is a very well crafted story. It is short, with smart kids, adult scientists, giant blood-sucking flies and tons of sheep.
