So sorry! Missed an 'l' there, even checked, then got distracted 🤦‍♀️ @neillcameron.bsky.social it is. This is where an edit button would be nice. Apologies!

There you go: first 6 for £1 😊 thephoenixcomic.co.uk/signup-phoen...
Loads of amazing authors including @jamiesmart.bsky.social and @neilcam57.bsky.social. My son loved reading them - and would often reread them too.

Have you come across The Phoenix comic yet? It's meant to be 7-14, so maybe he's still a bit young, but check it out when he is old enough. My son read it for years and loved it.

Reminds me of the Morlocks (from the 1960 film)...

Ah, okay. These books were from when my mother-in-law died. She would have bought a lot of them second hand, hence the different names. Your books are beautiful, I hope they find good new homes!

I recently tracked down (via the ancestry website) a distant cousin of someone who'd written their name a book in 1910 and sent it to her. She was pleased to receive the book. So if any of them have distinctive names and you fancy doing a bit of digging...

Presumably because these are the children mentioned in the article and the parents have provided the photo?

😂

Thanks for the heads-up - great book too. Strange to see The Troubles and Disney in the same sentence, though...

Wow, that mane! 😍 Could be in a shampoo commercial!

Absolutely. And I think most people appreciate that. Unfortuntely, that just hasn't been my experience on Twitter lately.

I think the author makes quite clear in the article that she doesn't. But the answers you often get on X these days when you try to have a debate is just playground level abuse - no exchanges of ideas to be had there anymore.

Unless she specifically woke you up to discuss it, then no, not too early. It's just a colour. Presumably she has already narrowed the choice down to the ones she likes, so you can't even go horribly wrong with your answer.
