Full Circle

In The High Valley by Susan Coolidge is the second book in the Clover Carr Chronicles. It is equally as enchanting as the previous Carr Family stories.

The circle is closed as we hear about the fortunes and fates of the now grown up Carr children.

Part of the story is set in England, in Devon around the Bideford and Clovelly areas which I am familiar with, having holidayed there as a child. The familiarity with the area meant that I was able to clearly ‘see’ the setting.

The Katy and Clover Carr books have all been delightful giving a glimpse into a bygone age. Whether you are eight or eighty these books will delight, enchant and charm you.
