I can think of few greater pleasures in reading aloud to a bookish child than to read that child first <i>Gulliver's Travels </i>and then <i>Mistress Masham's Repose</i>... It is a stunning book for a child to know

A book I read again and again is <i>Mistress Masham's Repose... </i>you're in awe of the imagination behind it. When I read it as a child I thought it had really happened.
- Jill Murphy, Sunday Telegraph
Open <i>Mistress Masham's Repose</i>, by T H White, and you stop into a magical place... The book is an idyll.
