Two stories in one book about 2 brothers. Nice to read something different to Cedar Grove - still a great read.

Loved this book. It includes two stories, one about each brother in the family. The story is straightforward and makes you want to keep reading to see what happens. It does not include any explicit language or any sexual innuendos. Both stories are brilliant feel good stories.

Loved this book! It was especially enjoyable as it was two stories in one which gave the continuity and never left you wondering. Such an easy but enjoyable read. Could not put it down towards the end!
