A review by mudder17
All Things Wise and Wonderful by James Herriot

5.0

These audiobooks are like a warm fire on a chilly winter night. I love listening to him talk about the different Yorkshire characters and about his love for animals, even the orneriest ones. I found myself laughing, commiserating, and even tearing up over his stories. I know this was a completely different time than today, but much of what he observed about human nature remains true today. If you need a little pick-me-up or find yourself in a reading slump, these audiobooks are an excellent way to get back into reading. The best part is that you can start and stop at any time. These books read like a collection of short stories with each chapter representing a story. This book jumped around back and forth in time as he recounted his time in the RAF and his time as a vet, sharing lessons he learned from both experiences, but I didn't find it at all disruptive. I look forward to continuing the series!
