Why one can not find these darling little PENGUINS in the States-I can not say? Never fear- head right off to ENGLAND for this most delightful series- PENGUIN'S ENGLISH JOURNEY. Twenty classic English romps through the countryside.
All available at AMAZON uk here
or PENGUIN here

You know, every time I come back from the UK I find my suitcase stuffed with all manner of books. They just do books better over there, I think. One of my favorite haunts is Daunt Books. Could lose myself forever in there....
ReplyDeleteCharming .. .
ReplyDeleteEach illustration worthy
of a frame.
Just darling illustrations not to mention the titles and authors
ReplyDeletePenguin really does it right, would love the set!
The title of my blog comes from A. E. Houseman's A Shropshire Lad. Celia Feinnes and Alan Davidson - both absolute musts! Will probably ask for set as Christmas present.
ReplyDeleteBlue- I remember your telling me this- I am smitten with them all-these being my favourites, I will definitely grab the recommendations -arent the covers lovely? G
ReplyDeleteJudith, and Anon.
ReplyDeleteIt is true the covers are charming-just enough to imagine with!
Janet- I agree, I could definitely get lost in a beautiful bookstore.

Oh dear. One of the shopping sites has a category Mine Mine Mine! I feel the same way right now.
ReplyDeleteAnd I didn't analyze it, but I too last came back from England with books, as my back remembers.
Oh my stars. They are sublime.
ReplyDeleteI love these! Saw another one of their sets just today. Beautiful design - I'm glad to see even in this climate that publishers are being creative.
