There is a difference between a book for children that the kids themselves will like and one that adults will like.

|title=The Life of Rebecca Jones
|author=Angharad Price
|rating=5
|genre=Biography
|summary=A newly-married couple make their way home from the chapel, riding on a horse-drawn cart as it winds its way round familiar country lanes towards the beautiful valley of Maesglasau. The horse pauses atop a hill and the valley spreads out before them: 'the vessel of their marriage'. The centuries-old stone farmhouse in the crook of the mountain is to be their homestead; a sturdy, silent witness to the tragedy and joy that is an intrinsic part of the fabric of family life.
