AUTHOR
Lucy Maria Boston (1892-1990) purchased a ramshackle manor house near Cambridge, England, in 1935, which over a period of two years she lovingly restored. It is the house that inspired her, at the age of sixty-two, to take pen in hand and create the beloved Green Knowe chronicles. L.M. Boston said she wrote her books to please herself--but the pleasure of her stories extends to all who read them.

REVIEWS
Ingram Library Services
"The classic tales of Green Knowe, written by L. M. Boston in the 1930s, have returned to audio thanks to Listen & Live Audio. The first two, The Children of Green Knowe and Treasure of Green Knowe, are fabulous. Simon Vance, the narrator, captures the voice of each child and adult presented through these glimpses of time as it exists at Green Knowe. Vance is even willing, and quite capable, of singing the snippets of songs that are presented throughout the stories. His smooth voice brought me into the world of Green Knowe--I was so disappointed when I had to leave."
