schez 's review for:
Tom's Midnight Garden
by Philippa Pearce
I found this title through reading another book. Curiosity got the better of me and I found a copy.
It's a wonderful childrens book that reminds me of why I read as a child. I wish someone had shown me this growing up.
In the story, we meet Tom - he is sent away for the summer due to his brother being ill with measles.
Tom thinks its going to be bore and a far stretch from his own scuppered summer plans but a strange grandfather clock has other ideas. At the stroke of 13 the magic really begins.
Heart-warming and engaging.
