Water With Love & Care

Clara’s Secret Garden by Rosie Green is a perfectly charming contemporary novel and the first book in the Little Duck Pond Café trilogy which promises to be delightful.

The novel is written in the first person from the point of view of the lead character Clara. This means that the reader becomes intimately acquainted with her and her hopes and dreams.

Clara has a huge heart. She thinks of others, putting their needs first, even if it means breaking her own heart. She is a very likable, lovable, realistic young lady.

Family is important. Clara is the lynch pin in her family. She is the glue that holds it all together. Clara sees needs and she meets them.

Clara sees those whom others pass over – the very young and the very old. She is a caring big sister and a loving granddaughter.

We witness the kindness of Clara as she knows how to encourage a young child and bring her out of her shell and expand her life.
