Little Boy Lost- Marghanita laski

I read this book so many years ago I can't remember just when but I can recall it's impact when I read it. It is a wonderful story and to this day I remember the actual end which is not something I can often say. I am sure your book club will be enchanted by it.

I haven't read the book but the thread title had me scratching my head because I recognised the author's name but couldn't think where from.

I've just googled her and now I remember her TV panellist days.....What's My Line in particular.

Oh a wonderful book. My daughter had/ has a white teddy bear that book made me feel how important some soft toys are to some children. A poem of a book. I love getting the latest Persephone catalogue and crossing off a few more.

That name has brought back some memories. My Dad always used to watch Brains Trust on TV and Marghanita Laski was often on it. I'm sure I would find the programme very interesting now but as an 8/9 year old I thought it was a crashing bore.

The book sounds very interesting and I'll try and get a copy.

Thanks for recommending this book. I checked online and our local library had it so I read it yesterday afternoon and thoroughly enjoyed it. It is an unusual book and it was good to read something different.
