  <default_description>&lt;div&gt;Pod, Homily, and Arrietty Clock's huge adventures have been thrilling children young and old for fifty years--and their appeal is as strong as ever in these handsome new paperback packages. While the original beloved interior illustrations by Beth and Joe Krush have been retained, Marla Frazee's striking cover illustrations capture these little people with a larger-than-life appeal.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[It's too bad that this series of books about little people is in such danger of being dismissed as a cute or trite children's fairy story. They certainly shouldn't be described in that way.

I still think Arrietty is an awful lot of fun, though. She's a delightful little heroine, but her mother gives me a pain.]]></body>
