Miss Happiness & Miss Flower

Miss Happiness & Miss Flower

England is the last place Nona Fells wants to be.

No one asked her if she wanted to leave sunny India to live in a chilly English village with her aunt's family - and her cousin, Belinda, just hates her! But when two dainty Japanese dolls arrive at Nona's doorstep, everything begins to change.

Like Nona, Miss Happiness and Miss Flower are lonely and homesick, so Nona decides to build them their own traditional Japanese house.

Over time, not only does Nona create a home for the dolls, but one for herself as well.

Originally published in 1961, Rumer Godden's classic story of friendship and being part of a family is now back in print for a new generation of readers to cherish.
