@InvisibleInkx Thank you for those positive comments. I just had a 55 year old post a 5 star review on the Amazon.com website (in the U.S.) and she said she regretted not having any grandchildren to read the story to, but that she very much enjoyed it as an adult.
I deliberately make the reading age high, then explain the harder words in the notes. The great thing about e-readers too is the instant access to a dictionary definition - it gets children into the habit of expanding their vocabulary. As Gordon says later in the series: "If thought is language that isn't spoken, that must mean that the more language you know the more able you are to think."
Could I ask you a REALLY big favour? Could I ask you to post that last paragraph of yours as a review in the kindle store? It's really quick to do, and will help me build up a good store of positive comments. I'm averaging 5 stars at the moment...
Clicking on the book 1 slider on the homepage of www.myrddinsheir.com takes you directly to the relevant page in the kindle store; then you just click on <post a review> and copy and paste it in.
If you ever want me to edit another chapter, or offer comments on a particular short story, do send it to me via the myrddinsheir e-mail address I know you have...
