Part three..sees Molly furthering her education and working as one of first teacher trainers, traveling far and wide( quite a contrast to the little girl not allowed to go on long walks or to the theatre because she was a girl!) And marrying and the tale of her first born, etc etc
Was very sad to finish this book ....

Oh goodness now I am hooked ...by Molly and her interesting life......much more detailed and vivid than the first book ,as she is older and having a lot more experiences to write about....she had me a the great critical account of how bonkers education and it's rules in school often are....
However as a bright girl she rose to higher ranks and was better treated....became rather a pioneer of teacher training in fact.
Also we see the start of romance and more family news...
Very engrossing to me,many will not find it so I can imagine.....my father was finding it dull at times...… (mais)

Love books by ordinary people recalling their childhood.
This is very interesting, it sure if would like this family or not..
Lots of detail but not as much as hoped...
One thing that really annoyed was " the servants" refered to like this but no names or description at all!
