Been on the shelves for a long time in the garage, and it looks like it has been nibbled by mice! It's a shame as it is a beautiful looking book. A very fun retelling, although some of the stories drag on a bit. All the exuberance of Chaucer but with the concomitant crudities, to misquote Kind Hearts and Coronets. Helen has been away for a well-deserved break this weekend, back tonight. I've just about coped with the kids so far, but with Wil's funeral on Friday, taking the cubs for a night hike and sleepover and the dentist today, it has all been a bit much. Will be very glad to see her this evening! Wil's funeral was heart-breaking, I can't imagine how desolated Heidi and the children are, we should have been better friends and I kick myself that we lost touch in recent years.
