Description

Josephine Pullein-Thompson and her younger twin sisters Diana and Christine are well known as the authors of many pony stories for children. In this autobiography they tell the story of their early life growing up in Oxfordshire recalling tales of the people and animals that surrounded them.

'Are your twins normal?' Mrs Pullein-Thompson was asked. 'Good God, I hope not,' she retorted. The twins were Diana and Christine who, with their elder sister, Josephine, wrote more than 150 books, which have sold in their millions around the world. Fifty years after the joint publication of their first book, It Began with Picotee, the siblings wrote about their extraordinary childhood with lovable, but often unreliable animals and unforgettable humans. Their charming, nostalgic memoir offers a glimpse into the lives of three remarkable sisters who went on to become household names to a generation of readers.
