Over Hill And Dale

Continuing where THE OTHER SIDE OF THE DALE ended, Gervase Phinn begins his second year as a Yorkshire schools inspector. Many of the colourful characters from the first book reappear – the mostly mad staff at County Hall, the teachers who have the daunting task of educating the children using methods ranging from compulsion to cajolement, and of course the children themselves whose innocent (?) remarks make this book such a joy to read. When Gervase’s colleagues rag him unmercifully about his faraway look whenever the name of Christine Bentley is mentioned, he realises he has to take remedial action. Gervase Phinn has an extraordinary talent to entertain, and OVER HILL AND DALE will make you laugh out loud. – ASIN: 0718143884 | ISBN13: 9780718143886 | ISBN-13: 978-0718143886
