The Borrowers (A Puffin Book) : Norton, Mary: desertcart.co.uk: Books Review: Very descriptive, lovely read - Having watched the movie as a child, I was very curious to read the book as an adult and I can honestly say, I was not dissapointed! Such a lovely read and such depth to the characters. Very descriptive book and has a lot of deeper life lessons hidden within the story. Certainly worth a read for children and adults alike Review: Great story for kids - My kids (5 and 7) and I love this story.

I still love this book!
I read this book as a little girl and now i am reading it to my own little girl. It is such a feel good book to read, the chapters aren't too long either which is helpful for short attention spans. don't try and line it up with the movie because it is nothign like the movie - apart from some names!

and it was just as good as I remembered
Having read the book as a child I decided it was about time I re-read it, and it was just as good as I remembered. A great story for children of all ages. I'm sure Borrowers are living in my house!

Borrowers a hit with 9 year old
Bought for a nine year old who had seen it on screen and now wanted to read the book, which she did in record time, so I’m told.

Childhood Classic
I bought this book for my granddaughter having enjoyed it myself as a child. She is now enjoying it having just reached the age to escape into the story reading it herself
