Synopsis

But it is, said Griselda, getting rather vexed. "If it isn't a garden it's grounds, private grounds, and nobody should come without leave. This path leads down to the wood, and there's a door in the wall at the bottom to get into the lane. You may go down that way, little boy. No one comes scrambling up the way you did."

Format:Paperback
I have this book in a leather-bound edition, published at the turn of the century. It was part of the magic of my childhood, and I would recommend it to any child, girl or boy, who wants to have a fantastic adventure and learn a lesson about making the best of a bad situation. It's an unforgettable story, and the illustrations are beautiful. I urge everyone to buy it -- whatever your age is!

The Best of the Best 3 Dec 2004
By Margaret A. Davis - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Alice, Peter, Dorothy, the Wardrobe, half-magic . . . all on quests in magical places. But this one is the best and the most meaningful. Alone, Griselda is be-friended by magical creatures--not unlike imaginary friends--until she finds strength within herself and her real world. This old book never gained the notariety of others, but is far more enchanting, well-written, and touching than those that became more fashionable. It is a book that many readers claim changed their lives. It entertains and touches the hearts of young and old.

I don't believe you could give a better gift. . . 2 Sep 1998
By Sveicess - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
than "The Cuckoo Clock" to an imaginative child of the proper age! While its tales-within-tales were lovely, what really caught me were the evocative details of the little heroine's surroundings. I realize my love for potpourri, nodding "Mandarin" porcelains, and yes, even cuckoo clocks were formed as I read this book.

"Why will you jump at conclusions so? It's a very bad habit, for very often you jump over them, you see, and go too far. One should always walk up to conclusions, very slowly and evenly, right foot first, then left, one with another--that's the way to get where you want to go, and feel sure of your ground. &quote;
