Format:Paperback
I bought this after watching a couple of episodes of the currently running Halcyon River Diaries on television, as I thought it would be interesting to find out a bit more about how they'd come to end up living by the river.
It is mainly a tale of them trying to persuade and then make a documentary about the otters they discover living in the river that runs past their house and it is a lovely, gently flowing story of their trials and tribulations. I would have found a little more detail about Philippa and her family interesting, but then it isn't really billed as an autobiography I suppose.
A really sweet story, well written, funny in parts and sad in others portraying an idyllic sounding life. Lovely.

Format:Hardcover
A beautifully written book that I simply couldn't put down. Honest, amusing and most of all very real - you can even imagine being there with the writer at times. Might not be in the top 10 best sellers, but a great read that I highly recommend.

Love story crosses river
It's really about the making of a TV programme. Which is fine, I suppose, if you like that sort of thing, and it is a TV programme about animals for the BBC, who tend to have high... Read more
