About this listen

The end of the school year often brings unmitigated rapture for schoolteachers, and so it should for Miss Read, schoolmistress in the charming English village of Fairacre.

When Miss Read returns, refreshed, to her beloved village, she is ready to tackle the problems that await her. Read by Gwen Watford.

A perfect book

This is a beautifully heart warming book which is so well read. It’s a small picture of a quieter life and time.

A wonderful listen

I thoroughly enjoyed this book as I do all the Miss Read series of books. So easy to be transported to the gentle world of Fairacre, I feel like I know all of the characters personally. I wish Changes at Fairacre could reach Audible, it’s one of my favourites.

Miss Read never disappoints.

"Further Afield" is another beautiful and moving tale of Fairacre and its people. Such a treat!
