Lady of the Manse : Lavinia Derwent ; illustrations by Elizabeth Haines
Young girls - especially those brought up on a farm - aren't usually expected to act as 'Lady of the Manse', but, when Lavinia Derwent's elder brother took up a Ministry in Berwickshire, she was suddenly catapulted into a startlingly different world. Whether she is entertaining the Brethren of the local kirk , or supporting 'Wee Wullie' and his sister 'Oor Net', or placating the local mad major, Lavinia keeps both her head and her sense of humour - and the result is a delightful feast of nostalgia.
