Anna, shy and timid
Mary, almost the opposite
Linnette, aloof and snobbish
Three girls growing up in a Hertfordshire village
"An emotive story of inner longings, a sweet and true character. Woven together with homely people of Anna's family and friends from different walks of life, and her various adventures in and around the area she lived. Described by the author in much detail of what appears a beautiful and interesting part of England's countryside and village life. Without giving too much away, the conclusion of the story was eagerly awaited, and personally satisfying."
