MISS BUNCLE'S BOOK

AMBERWELL

Five young Ayrtons all grew up at Amberwell, playing in the gardens and preparing themselves to venture out into the world. To each of these children, Amberwell meant something different, but common to all of them was the idea that it was more than just where they lived - it was part of them.

MISS BUNCLE MARRIED

Barbara finds the perfect candidate in the town of Wandlebury and the Abbotts make it their home. Barbara doesn't intend to get mixed up with those around her again, but can't help falling into scrapes, often with humorous consequences!

THE TWO MRS ABBOTTS

Mrs Abbott is flustered at the thought of putting up a lady from the Red Cross, but is happily surprised when she turns out to be an old friend from her previous life as an infamous writer. Of course, she's now far too busy with her children to write, not to mention helping out in the lives of the villagers. And with a possible spy in their midst, evacuated families, potential love matches and a visit from a famous writer, she's got her work cut out for her. Luckily for her, the other Mrs Abbott is around to help.
