This is my second Julie Andrews book! The first one I read was Mandy back in 2022, a little bit after I started my blog. You can read the review for it here .  The Last of the Really Great Whangdoodles is about three siblings: Lindy, Ben, and Thomas, who meet an eccentric science professor one day on a trip to the zoo.

So she starts a project to tidy up the cottage and grow a garden there, but she has to keep it secret, as she has felt she finally found a place to call her own and doesn't want to share it with any...
