Book of the Week - The twins, Papa and Parker by Agnes Grozier Herbertson

The twins are Mike and Pamela, who, with a convalescent Papa, and his invaluable man Parker, go to stay at Lavender Beach. There they make friends with a little girl named Pleasaunce, an errand-boy who knows a charm for recovering lost sixpences and a paper-man who drives a donkey-cart.

love the fact that Papa has a ‘man’ named Parker and that the paper man drives a donkey-cart.  I wonder if Pleasaunce was nicknamed Pleasure?


The twins, Papa and Parker by Agnes Grozier Herbertson, illustrated by Jaxon. Published by Blackie c1927.
