Story
Angus and Prue Garland love walking past the Victoria Coach Station.
Angus likes to spot coaches going to the furthest away places,
and Prue looks at families with luggage and tries to guess where
they are going.
Dad's youngest sister, Aunt Hattie, is getting married, and wants
Prue to be a bridesmaid and Angus to carry her train. The wedding
is to be in Liverpool, and both children are excited when Dad
decides the family will travel there by coach.
Thoughts
Let's Go Coaching was published by Hamish Hamilton as
a Gazelle Book - described as "very first reading for the
very young".
The characters in Let's Go Coaching are aged six and
seven, and the storyline is extremely slight - even more so than
those of Noel's other books published by Hamish Hamilton (The
Grey Family in the "Reindeer" series, and Bertram
and Old Chairs to Mend
in the "Antelope" series).
