This is quite simply one of the happiest books I have ever read. I skipped through it (and skipping is exactly the word to use here) with a smile on my face and joy in my heart. It has the spirit of one of those marvellous Hollywood comedies that featured Cary Grant & Katherine Hepburn or a Fred & Ginger musical extravaganza. The characters are so wonderfully and expertly drawn you instantly know who to like and who is a bounder.everything fizzes and sparkles and makes us whisk we could have a day just like Miss Pettigrew in our lives. I may have to read it again immediately.

Very fun read of a book from a female author in 1938. A few things don't stand the test of time, but overall a lighthearted, enjoyable break from heavier reading.

So much fun! I listened to this delightful book on a long drive last weekend and it helped me pass the miles with pleasure. Funny, charming, and very well performed.
