5.0 out of 5 stars BEST OF THE ADAMS FAMILY BOOKS, 20 Oct 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: The King of Camberwell: Unabridged (Audio Cassette)
THIS BOOK IS MAINLY ABOUT SAMMY AND SUSIE'S ROMANCE. IT IS BOTH TOUCHING AND FUNNY HOW SAMMY GOES ABOUT WOOING HIS SUSIE.HIGHLIGHT OF ALL MJ STAPLES BOOKS TO ME AS IT IS INTERESTING TO SEE HOW SAMMY WAS SO BASHFUL AROUND SUSIE BUT OUTGOING WITH EVERYONE ELSE. IM NOW ENJOYING READING ABOUT SUSIE AND SAMMYS OWN FAMILIES LOVE LIVES

5.0 out of 5 stars Third book in the Adams series, 2 Nov 2004
By M. E. Newell (Marietta, Georgia, United States) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: King of Camberwell (Adams family saga) (Paperback)
"King of Camberwell" is the third book in the Adams series by Mary Jane Staples. This book focus on the changing fortune of Sammy Adams, indeed the whole Adams family. It shows the love that develops between Sammy and Susie Brown, a young girl that started out working for Sammy in his market stall.
This was really good book, Ms. Staples is able to cover all her characters in good fashion. She gives the reader a family that any reader would want to be a part of. Any book by Ms. Staples should not be missed.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best books I have ever read!, 17 April 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: The King of Camberwell: Unabridged (Audio Cassette)
The Adam's family are like friends to me, this story I think is the best,and that is saying something.I just could'nt believe how shy Sammy Adam's was when he was with Susie Brown and was really relieved when Susie sorted him out when nursing him.These books are really worth a read, but please read in order to really appreciate them.They are full of humour and sometimes a little bit of mystery.He is truly a remarkable writer and i eagerly look forward to The Homecoming.
