poppy Posted July 12, 2007 Posted July 12, 2007 PP, I'm reading 'A Traveller in Time' at the moment. Like you I read it as a child and it's one of those books that I always remembered as being very good but couldn't recall much detail. I can see why I liked it so much .... it's a strange feeling reliving the child you were. I even associated this book with certain smells, particularly lavender and thyme, and interesting to see they are mentioned. Quote

It really made an impact on me as a young girl, and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it again recently. It's written in a different world, and I guess it brings back memories of slower times, and the counryside as it was then. I don't know, but I found it just as spell binding now as then. Pp Quote
Janet Posted April 21, 2008 Posted April 21, 2008 I don't know whether anyone is still looking for A Traveller in Time by Alison Uttley, but I spotted it in Waterstones this morning. It's been re-released. Quote
Purple Poppy Posted April 25, 2008 Author Posted April 25, 2008 Oh great! So it should be. Thanks for the info Janet. I bought a copy. Can't remember where from. It really is such a lovely little story. Pp Quote
