• I first read this book, or more likely had it read to me, when I was at infant school in the early 1980s. Although I couldn't remember many details of it, I had fond memories of it. I've just finished rereading it and I enjoyed it at least as much this time round. Doubtless I'm biased by nostalgia, but I think the book has aged well. It also has a brilliant plot twist right at the end, which is one of the few details I had remembered. Because of that, it can perhaps be most completely enjoyed when reading or hearing the story for the first time, but there's plenty still to enjoy on subsequent readings.

• Read in year seven English when I was about 11/12 and remember thinking it was okay... not my usual.
