Rendition To Books We Didn't Mean to Go to Sea (Swallows and Amazons #7)

In this latest adventure (following Pigeon Post, winner of the Carnegie Medal), the Walker family has come to Harwich to wait for Commander Walker's return. As usual, the children can't stay away from boats, and this time they meet young Jim Brading, skipper of the well-found sloop Goblin. But fun turns to high drama when the anchor drags, and the four young sailors find themselves drifting out to sea - sweeping across to Holland in the midst of a full gale! As in all of Ransome's books, the emphasis is on self-reliance, courage, and resourcefulness. We Didn't Mean to Go to Sea is a story to warm any mariner's heart. Full of nautical lore and adventure, it will appeal to young armchair sailors and season sailors alike.

Theres something so cosy and comfortable about Arthur Ransomes Swallows & Amazons series. They are imaginative, adventurous, nostalgic - very much of another place and time, yet resonant with many of my own childhood experiences. I never sailed the Lake District with my siblings, or accidentally crossed the English Channel with them alone, or discovered my own secret dell - but theres something of that in that childish anticipation of what might lie over the next hill, or the possibilities



Surely the best children's book ever written. Yes, dammit, this time I'm finishing the sentence. It is just superb. I daresay there will be the usual bunch of reviewers moaning that it took too long to get going. But this was a book written in the time before young people had the attention span of a gnat, and actually everything in the first half of the book is important to the second half of the book. It's called construction.This is probably (although I'm only halfway through the series so may
