This beautiful gift book, a celebration of children’s fiction of the twentieth century, contains extracts from writers as diverse as Jacqueline Wilson, Anne Fine, J R R Tolkien and Rudyard Kipling. There’s humour, adventure, fantasy and fairy-tale in this introduction to the century’s classics – the Iron Man and the Borrowers rub shoulders with Bilbo Baggins and Charlie.
