Rachael Treasure's collection of heart-warming short stories vary from very brief (2 pages) to approximately 30 pages in length allowing readers to dip in and out at their convenience. Her characters display all our usual intensely (and often nonsensical) personal concerns and anxieties which make her stories very believable.
Many, such as "The mysterious handbag" or "McCubbin's lost child", have a twist in the tale or an odd premise which make them quite quirky. Humour and romance are common themes, and many stories include animals or are set in the country.
