5.0 out of 5 stars totally hilarious, 3 Jul 2001
By A Customer
Not many books get me laughing out loud, but this did in almost every chapter. After seeing the movie of 'Fried Green Tomatoes', I've since tried to read everything this lady has written. And I've loved all of them. Her honesty permeates throughout her books, and Daisy Fay is just so comical in her outlook and naivety, and the wonderful cast of characters around her are the work of a true artist!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Beautiful book, 8 Jan 2003
By rmc "rosa" (Scotland) - See all my reviews
This book takes the form of a journal of a young girl. She records the details of her life as a child through to early adulthood. It is a beautiful, yet sad book. Her circumstances and the people in her life could leave her embittered but she never loses her innocent charm and acceptance of all that life holds. As is typical when we see things through the eyes of a child, there are loads of really funny moments but many others that will make you weep.

5.0 out of 5 stars the most amazing book ever, 20 Feb 2005
Daisy fay and the miracle man is THE best book in the world. I first read it when I was 11 and have re-read it again and again for well over ten years. It's hilarious and will make you laugh until you cry. It's very difficult to put down because its full of one adventure after another. Daisy is a wonderful character, with a father somewhat like the hapless Al Bundy from 'Married with Children,'always getting her (and himself)into scrapes but with a heart of gold. It apeals to all ages. Treat yourself and buy it for the best read you'll ever have!
