# No Greater Love by Margaret Dickinson (Paperback)

**A powerful tale of courage, love and found family, from _Sunday Times_ bestseller Margaret Dickinson.**  
  
_A troubled family. A young woman seeking refuge._  
  
**Derbyshire, 1904.** After a family tragedy and a broken engagement dramatically alter her circumstances, Lady Elizabeth Ingham seeks employment by training to be a nanny. Known only as Lizzie, she secures a post at Alstone-in-the-Dale Manor to care for a four-year-old boy, Charlie Spendlove, who badly needs her kindness and understanding.  
  
When Lizzie arrives at the manor, she is appalled at Charlie's condition. He is a little wild thing; his hair is a tangled mass of ringlets, and he does not speak but screams and kicks most of the time. The family and staff are at their wits' end, and no one expects Lizzie to stay long.  
  
But with patience and love, Lizzie soon brings a change and the attitude of the staff towards her alters. As Charlie gradually improves, Lizzie begins to feel at home at Alstone-in-the-Dale Manor, and new love enters her life when she meets James, the master of the house's brother.  
  
But as the World War I looms, young men from the village begin to enlist--can Lizzie's new-found happiness withstand the hardships of war?
