New on my bookshelf

Happy New Year! 
I thought I would, for the first time, actually put up a New on My Bookshelf post on IMM (In My Mailbox) day.
Hope you all have a fantastic Two Thousand & Twelve. 

Miss Pettigrew Lives For a Day
by Winifred Watson
1938



The chapters proceed with corresponding time increments, which is fabulous (and also informative). I love the illustrations, it gives you an extra little push into the story and into the realm of pre-war London in the 30's. I have already started the book because I couldn't resist - it's delightful and funny and lovely, just like the film.
