We all dream about living on an island.
I loved this book. I've seen Looe island when we have been visiting but never really taken any notice let alone knew anyone actually lived in it at one time. I found Evelyn's book very amusing and I take my hat off to the sisters for making their dreams come true despite the hardship.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
