Description
Elizabeth Taylor's Mossy Trotter is a charming tale about a mischievous boy growing up in a bygone era. When he moves to the countryside, life is full of delights - trees to climb, woods to explore and, best of all, the marvellous dump to rummage through. However, not every day is carefree, as Mossy's happiness can be disrupted by his mother's meddling friend, Miss Silkin, or the looming prospect of being a page-boy at her wedding. Taylor skillfully captures the complexities and frustrations of childhood, where adults often seem illogical and inconsistent. This delightful story is a worthwhile read for anyone who enjoys tales of childhood adventure and mischief.
