The year is 1940 and the British have their backs to the wall. Everyone is preparing for the battle that, as Winston Churchill said, would see the “whole fury and might of the enemy turned upon us.” Everyone including the young Miss Emily Seeton, London art teacher, who finds her strangely prophetic sketches do not go unnoticed by the secret services. At first suspected of being a fifth columnist, she soon finds herself recruited by the dashing Major Gerry Haynes and sent to carry out a very special observance task at a rural Spitfire factory. Faced with bombs, sabotage and murder, Miss Seeton must summon all her courage – it is after all her nature to Keep Calm and Carry On! What people are saying about Miss Seeton: “Miss Seeton is a hoot! I was torn between laughter and eye rolling with each page turn. The characters are loveable and thoroughly British. This is a perfect specimen of classic British mystery.“ “What a joy Miss Seeton is. Why did I wait so long to read them? Splashy characters, lovely setting, and just plain funny.” “I've become a Miss Ess addict. Great characters that get better with each book. A must for anyone who loves a good British cozy with a twist, and surprising revelations of what a good brollie can do in a pinch.” “What a great series. This is one of the best in English light reading mysteries.” “Miss Seeton is a delightful sendup of the amateur sleuth. If your doctor has prescribed laughter as the best medicine, run and buy the entire series as fast as you can.” Editorial reviews: “A most beguiling protagonist!” New York Times “Miss Seeton gets into wild drama with fine touches of farce . . . This is a lovely mixture of the funny and the exciting.” San Francisco Chronicle “This is not so much black comedy as black-currant comedy . . . You can’t stop reading. Or laughing.” The Sun “Depth of description and lively characters bring this English village to life.” Publishers Weekly “Fun to be had with a full cast of endearingly zany villagers . . . and the ever gently intuitive Miss Seeton.” Kirkus Reviews “Miss Seeton is the most delightfully satisfactory character since Miss Marple.” Ogden Nash “I think, on the whole, Miss Seeton is the most loveable and entertaining of any of today’s fiction detectives. May she live forever.” London Mystery Selection

This delightful collection of charmingly told animal stories started out as bedtime reading for the author s grandchildren, some ideas of whom contributed to its inspiration. Here you will meet such characters as a little duck who refuses to fly south for the winter with the other ducks because he wants to be independent, Jasper the scaredy-cat who is afraid of everything until he meets little Calico, and a field mouse who constantly exaggerates and never really listens, with unexpectedly dangerous consequences for her family. Interspersed with the stories are funny poems and questions to make you think. Although the animals are frankly humanised, the author s voice is never condescending but supremely natural. Principles to enable a child to cope with life s challenges are communicated in an imaginative and sensitive manner.

Years before Ann Landers and Dear Abby, there was Pegge Parker, a 21-year-old high school graduate who began writing a daily advice column for teenagers in the Harrisburg Telegraph (Pennsylvania) in the 1940s. She named her column ¿Teen Topics and invited her teen readers to send her their problems. In these selected columns, you¿ll discover the quandaries that helped to shape the Greatest Generation¿and realize not much has changed.As Pegge¿s columns grew in popularity, she was invited to prestigious events at West Point Academy, New York¿s elite gatherings, and even the Indian Embassy. She mingled with Generals and royalty, movie stars and music legends¿all of which became daily entries in her column. Pegge skillfully and tactfully handled such dilemmas as grammar, dating, etiquette, grooming, travel tips, cooking and more. With no formal writing education, but a definite flair with the pen, Pegge furthered her career as a reporter in Washington, D.C., and Fairbanks, Alaska, and then moved ahead as a foreign correspondent in China, India, and South and Central America. She is the author of Diapers on a Dateline, detailing her time in India, juggling a demanding career, a new husband and five children in a foreign land. She also wrote Alias Pegge Parker, the story of an adventurous young woman who forged an exciting and successful career in the male-dominated field of foreign correspondence. With her husband, John Hlavacek, she coauthored Freelancing in Paradise covering their years living and working as freelance journalists in the Caribbean.
