A review by momreads
The Corfu Trilogy by Gerald Durrell

adventurous funny informative lighthearted medium-paced

5.0

I finished this book a few days ago and am sill thinking about it.  The author, Gerald, is a boy in the story.  He writes about the animals he studies and collects with such enthusiasm that when I want to go out and start collecting insects and other creatures.  The family dynamics are hilarious and each of them are written with warmth and candor.  If ever there was a mother who deserved a medal for patience, it is the mother in this book.  I loved every minute of this.  The people and the animals made for an enchanting, entertaining, hilarious read.
