There are two stories by Jan Mark in this hugely attractive little book in Barrington Stoke’s new Conkers series, both set in Medieval England. The Abbot of Canterbury needs the help of a poor shepherd boy to solve puzzles set by wicked King John if he’s to avoid execution, while in Robin Hood All at Sea, Robin leaves Greenwood to be a fisherman. He doesn’t find it easy, and the other fisherman are decidedly unimpressed, until they run into some pirates and Robin can show off his talents for shooting and wealth distribution. Though set in the past these stories have the freshness of everyday living about them, and Tony Ross’s illustrations add to the excitement. Barrington Stoke produce books specifically for reluctant or dyslexic readers. This is longer than most of their books, and they’ve included lots of jolly extras including fun facts and quizzes to tempt reluctant readers into longer stories. ~ Andrea Reece

Part of the Conkers series from Barrington Stoke, aimed at readers aged 6 to 9, for a wide range of readers and abilities. Each Conker title combines a story with lots of extras such as riddles, quizzes and fun facts.
