People are now sleeping on Gene Kemp too. My mother found me crying after I finished Tyke Tyler. That feeling of being fooled! But I really loved it too. Since then I’ve passed it on, and reactions are still astonishment in the main. One of those books that makes you love what only books can do.

Challops ahoy! Michael Morpurgo’s The War of Jenkins’ Ear is his best book. The mystery of faith handled sensitively for children.

Years later, I started work at a children’s publisher and set about reading the list. Maeve Henry’s Listen to the Dark blew me away. It was as though she could hear my thoughts. Still one of the most powerful novels I have ever read.

Jan Mark. I loved everything she wrote, but Nothing to be Afraid of is the book I have thought about the most. It is a masterpiece.

Love and Mercy.
