Review:
Moving, funny and larger than life -- Michael Morpurgo Magical, enchanting, riotously eccentric Daily Mail Funny and moving, James Herriot meets David Sedaris The Times Forthright, thoughtful, funny ... reads like a Jilly Cooper novel Sunday Times Funny and unexpectedly wise. Balding has lots of good stories to tell. It is impossible not to admire her honesty Mail on Sunday She can do anything. If there were four more Clare Baldings, we'd have our empire back. Six, and we'd be colonising the Moon. And there would be crumpets and ashtrays for everyone -- Caitlin Moran The Times The reading equivalent of snuggling by the fire with a labrador The Guardian A funny, affectionate memoir Independent on Sunday Charming, refreshingly self-depreciating, funny and moving. Balding tells it with immense flair Daily Express
