Summary

On Midsummer Eve in a Sussex meadow, Dan and Una act out their version of Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Suddenly, Puck, as old as Time itself, miraculously appears. The youngsters are swept into the past as Puck conjures up villages of long ago, filled with craftsmen, a Roman centurion, and a Norman knight. Rudyard Kipling’s magical tale brings English history dramatically to life to captivate both the young and the young at heart.

Brilliant

Somehow this book passed me by in childhood. I don’t know know why, because it’s brilliant and beautiful. Superbly read, it’s a truly essential, wonderful children’s book from the golden age of child literature.

Just like my Great Uncle telling me a story

I love this book, when Kippling is talking about West Sussex. His celebration of the county shines through.
