The Injured Deer

About this book

THE INJURED DEER is the third book in the Laura McNaughty Adventures series where we find Laura busy trying to help an injured deer she saw in Stokey's woods, and the grumpy Harbour Master has come to Laura's attention for being cruel to the sea birds living in and around the harbour. Welcome to the Laura McNaughty Adventures. The stories are suitable for all age groups, from kids of all levels, to teens and adults too. It's just good family reading. The books can be read in any order as the stories stand alone. Laura McBean lives in the middle cottage of three with her brother Johnny and her mum on the edge of Stokey's Woods. Laura was quite a mischievous girl when she was growing up, and that is how she got the nickname of Laura McNaughty. She doesn't get into as much mischief now because she is that little bit older, but if she finds out that someone has been cruel to animals then that person, whoever he or she maybe, will have Laura and her friends to contend with. Simon Dudley's, beautifully written and charmingly portrayed, children's book series is a pleasure to read. The lost and nearly forgotten years of 1950's childhood can be experienced within these pages as the author cleverly immerses you into their world. This is a real treat for any reader, young or old, who fancies a bit of time travel back to when kids could literally be kids.
