I have had some success with the beginnings of a plan to introduce Ransome to my 7yr old twins. I feel somewhat ashamed to say I used the DVD, as films are so much easier to get children interested than long books (although my kids are very bookish too). They loved it!
A tear came to my eye a few weeks later, when we saw a heron on the canal, and one of my daughters said to me, "We must be near the coast of China!"
Ok it wasn't a cormorant, but - good girl!
