Thale's Folly by Dorothy Gilman

Saw this one sitting on my book case and decided to take a look. I enjoyed Ms. Gilman's Mrs. Pollifax series and must have picked this book up at a library book sale. It was a very fast read (200 pages) and delightful. No trashy scenes or bad language. Wonderfully developed characters which you can't help but love and wish only good to happen in their lives. A feel good book that makes you smile and sorry to see the end. Like the Anatole France quote used by one of the characters of the book, "Chance was the word God used when he wished to remain anonymous".
