In this warm, tender, wonderfully evocative and often hilarious memoir one of the best-loved men in Britain brilliantly recalls his childhood in 1950s Yorkshire.
Growing up in the beautiful landscape that surrounds llkley in Wharfedale inspired Alan's early passion for nature. It was his Grandpa Hardisty who - with his allotment - encouraged Alan's first gardening skills.
With the sharpest eye for detail and vivid recall Alan brings to life the various family members, school friends ~ and foes ~ teachers and local
characters who became the powerful early influences of his life.
A joy from beginning to end and wonderfully read by the author, this is a classic childhood memoir.
