Good author
This is a continuation of Call the Midwife and a great way to know more about the troubled times in England during the early '50"s..

Life as it was in the 50's - heart warming, and sometimes heart wrenching
I decided to read Jennifer Worth's books after seeing the first season of "Call the Midwife" on PBS, not sure if I would be disappointed, since sometimes a TV series only vaguely follows the original written word, No disappointment here - Ms Worth has a wonderful style of writing, and tells it all - joy and sorrow.

Bit graphic at times, havent finished the read, but it is covering some territory shown on the tv show Call the Midwife, which was another book by the same author..
