She was a schoolmistress with a difference. Proud, cultured, romantic, her ideas were progressive, even shocking. And when she decided to transform a group of young girls under her tutelage into the "creme de la creme" of Marcia Blaine school, no one could have predicted the outcome.

I enjoyed this. She was slightly reminiscent of a teacher I had once!
I would recommend this read as it is witty and emotional whilst being only 128 pages long :)
