‘Thanks for all the delights . . .’

‘Dear All at Slightly Foxed, I have just read your newsletter with pleasure as always, and was particularly pleased to read again the article about Tom’s Midnight Garden; it has been one of my favourite books since I started reading it to my children. The other delight that you have started giving us are BB’s books. I have only read Brendon Chase which I found on a cousin’s bookshelf during a summer holiday during the war. I re-read it fairly regularly. My wife and I have just had to downsize from a house and garden which were too big for us, and the hardest part has been to reduce the size of my library. There was almost a dreadful mistake when I saw Brendon Chase in one of the wrong heaps! It was saved of course! I hope I will be able to find the magic of that book in his other writings. With very best wishes to you all, and thanks for all the delights that Slightly Foxed delivers.’ B. Lees, Hampshire
