About this listen

 Elizabeth "Birdie" Graham must defy her family to discover herself.

Birdie dreams of becoming a professional artist, but the constraints of society demand she marries well. In order to fulfil her dreams, she makes a deal with her parents: to let her spend a year at the St. Agnes School of Art in Cornwall, after which she will return home and marry the insufferable but influential and wealthy Charles Bonham, as per her parents' wishes.

Birdie however, has no intention of ever going back. Free of responsibility for the first time, she finds herself surrounded by a crew of bohemian artists who show her just how dizzying independence can be. And when she meets the magnetic, but troubled, Tremayne family, she will be forced to ask herself exactly what kind of woman and artist she really wants to be.

Beautiful Little Fools is such a heartwarming and inspiring book about following your passions, being true to yourself and reaping the wonderful rewards from doing just that. The characters are so likeable and relatable and it is also set against the beautiful Cornish backdrop. Olivia Horrox has an incredible way of describing a scene to make you feel like you are really there, I swear at some points I could smell the sea air! The book is set in the 1930s and is full of innocence, self discovery, glamour and simple living all in one!! I can’t wait to listen to more from this author!!

Heart warming and inspiring story 🥰

More suited to teenagers. I just couldn't relate to either the writing or the narration styles.
