Pon My Puff

This autobiographical novel is not only the true story of a child's upbringing by his grandparents in the 1920s, but also a story of the villagers on the Isle of Wight. We learn about the local milkman, the butcher, the shoemaker and other trades persons who made up the community. But also, through his grandfather's love, we gain a child's understanding of God and the afterlife. We join Peter at Christmas time for Stir Up Sunday and many amusing misunderstandings. We experience various adventures with his girlfriend Victoria in the grounds of a local manor house and at the village creek. Through the stories and anecdotes, we gain a greater understanding of what family and village life was like in the 1920s when the steam train ran supreme & when there was no electricity or telephone.
