coughingbearWelcome to the readthrough of Cricket Term, and many thanks to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
lilliburlero both for running this whole thing and giving me the chance to write about this book. It was the first Antonia Forest I ever read, found in a jumble sale when I was about ten, and I loved it immediately. At the Forest memorial day, I think Hilary Clare suggested that there may be too many references to books beforehand, but I remember liking that sense of jumping into the middle of life and story. And in many ways I think it’s one of the most joyous of Forest’s books.
First published 1974.
