And the name of the author? This is turning out to be much harder work than it should be.

Yet still we don't know the name of the author. For goodness' sake, abo.omar, just type the name of the author into this thread as a response!

I wrote it in my post number 6 Helen Chilton
It was on the cover of the book.

 

[emsr2d2]

OK, I'm sorry. I thought there was only one image attached to post #6. The one I opened just had the title of the book. However, in future, instead of making us open images, just tell us the title and author please. Thanks.
