Seemed more of a collection of short stories. Good to read to kids as a bedtime story as it is an engaging quick story with short chapters. Plot wise it seemed greatly sumerized and the character development was lacking. Made Robin less of a relatable character, there was jo conection. He did not come to life from this book.

Quite good especially for a younger age range I think. Written a while ago but still quite understandable language.

This was one of two books presented to me when I left primary school in July 1986.

Memory tells me that I've read this twice. I will have read it around the time it was presented to me and, although I recall little about it now, I know I really liked it.

I definitely read it a second time, as I recollect my being somewhat disappointed with it. No doubt a few years had passed and the book had become "too young" for me.

Derick Brown is credited as the illustrator, not the author. I believe the author to be anonymous, as no name features on the spine, covers, or inside the book.

Recommended for children under twelve.

Good story. Not too complicated like some "classics". I would have enjoyed having this as a bedtime story when I was younger.
