The Borrowers Afloat by Mary Norton
This is the third book that tells of the adventures of the Borrowers, now forced to leave their cottage after the departure of the gamekeeper and the boy. Although homeless again, Arrietty was strangely happy - whatever dangers lay in store, she was looking forward to the future.
Mary Norton was born in 1903 and brought up in a house in Bedfordshire, which was to become the setting for The Borrowers. First published in 1952, The Borrowers was an immediate success, winning the Library Association's Carnegie Medal. There followed four more Borrowers books: The Borrowers Afield (1955), The Borrowers Afloat (1959), The Borrowers Aloft (1961) and The Borrowers Avenged (1982). Poor Stainless was the last Borrowers story that Mary Norton wrote. She died in 1992.
