Pullein-Thompson pony books and more. Saturday, 9 August 2008. Review: JOSEPHINE - A Place With Two Faces. OK I am cheating here. First of all I have misplaced They Died In the Spring.

If I don't find it soon, I will find another Josephine book. Because I touched on A Place With Two Faces. A Place With Two Faces. Caught in K...
