Written in 1946, definitely a young chick lit book.

I adored this book as a child. I still enjoyed it, but was less enthusiastic as an adult, having thought things through as an adult.

It's very much worth reading, as it is charming. I've no idea how the move was, but it was certainly changed dramatically from the book, as was demonstrated by the photos from the movie.

When orphaned young Maria Merryweather arrives at Moonacre Manor, she feels as if she's entered Paradise. Her new guardian, her uncle Sir Benjamin, is kind and funny; the Manor itself feels like home right away; and every person and animal she meets is like an old friend. But there is something incredibly sad beneath all of this beauty and comfort-a tragedy that happened years ago, shadowing Moonacre Manor and the town around it-and Maria is determined to learn about it, change it and give her own life story a happy ending. But what can on solitary girl do?
