This book felt more serious and had sadder stories in it, just a different tone because James was away from Darrowby and Helen.

It was good how he managed to work in stories from his RAF training, though at times the shift from present to past confused me for a moment.

Had some lovely stories, like breaking the rules to sneak back and see Helen, and Kim the retriever with the badly broken leg. :-) ( )

Herriot was one of my greatest inspiration to choose my profession so what can I say? He has a gift to tell the most ordinary stories to be a part of a fairytale... ( )

While James goes through his induction training in the RAF he finds reminders of his life in Darrowby.

Comforting and warm stories about life and adventures in being a vet. ( )
