Books all children should read – Michael MorpurgoEarly Years and KS1The Twits, by Roald Dahl(Puffin, 4·99)Mr and Mrs Twit pass the time playing nasty tricks on one another. They're both horrid. In hishairy beard, Mr Twit "was always able to find a tasty morsel to nibble on".Burglar Bill, by Janet and Allan Ahlberg(Puffin, 4·99)"I'll 'ave that," is the catchphrase of the rogue who stars in this engaging and beautifullyillustrated tale. When Bill accidentally burglarises a baby, it turns out to be a blessing in a stolenbasket. "Runfrit, Boglaboll!"The Tiger Who Came To Tea, by Judith Kerr(HarperCollins, 5·99)Newsnight's Emily Maitlis has a theory that this book is an allegory about sex. Most childrenunderstand it as the story of a tiger that eats its hosts out of house and home. Debate continues.Where the Wild Things Are, by Maurice Sendak(Red Fox, 5·99)When Max engages in mischief, he is sent to bed without his supper. That's just the start.Sendak's paintings sing, and the text is a joy.The Tale of Samuel Whiskers, by Beatrix Potter(Frederick Warne, 4.99)Tom Kitten learnt nothing from his parents about the consequences of curiosity. Abducted by apsychotic rat, he comes within a whisker of being turned into a pudding. Nightmares guaranteed.Yertle the Turtle, by Dr Seuss(Collins, 4·99)Theodor Geisel's response to Hitler was more oblique than Stauffenberg's, but as effective.Yertle, king of the pond, commands all the turtles to stack themselves up so he can be top of theheap. Someone's riding for a fall.Fungus the Bogeyman, by Raymond Briggs(Puffin, 5·99)What boy won't thrill to the world of the Bogeymen, all snot, armpits and boils? This gaveRaymond Briggs's green crayon the workout of its life.The Story of the Little Mole Who Knew It Was None of His Business, by Werner Holzwarthand Wolf Erlbruch(Chrysalis, 4·99)Someone's dropping lands on poor mole's head. Who's the culprit? A farmyard investigation isconducted with Germanic seriousness. Mole's revenge is sweet.
Room on the Broom, by Julia Donaldson(Macmillan, 4·99)Punchier than The Gruffalo, this has children chanting along as a witch and her animal friendssee off a dragon in search of "witch and chips".The Very Hungry Caterpillar, by Eric Carle(Puffin, 5·99)"In the light of the moon, a little egg lay on a leaf " so begins this classic board book, its pagesdrilled with holes as the caterpillar eats his way through the week.The Cat in the Hat, by Dr Seuss(Colins, 4·99)"Look at me! Look at me! Look at me now!" The cat's a big show-off, but he knows how to havefun, and his chaotic antics delight.Charlotte's Web, by EB White(Puffin, 5·99)White's 1952 masterpiece describes the friendship between a lonely pig and a talented spider.This poignant tale teaches lessons about love, death and differing life expectancies.The Story of Babar, by Jean de Brunhoff(Egmont, 5·99)When Babar sees his mother shot he reacts as any modern child might: a few tears, then off on ashopping spree. Nice green suit, though.Winnie-the-Pooh, by AA Milne, illustrated by EH Shepard(Egmont, 11·99)Visit Hundred Acre Wood, and meet Pooh, Piglet and Christopher Robin, based on AA Milne'sson. This classic story hasn't aged, and EH Shepard's understated illustrations remain the bestLower KS2 – Year 5Stig of the Dump, by Clive King(Puffin, 6·99)When Barney falls down a dump the last thing he expects is to meet a cave boy. Stig was aneco-warrior before the term was invented. Sprightly, comic, classic.Ballet Shoes, by Noel Streatfeild(Puffin, 5·99)Adopted sisters Posy, Pauline and Petrova Fossil train as a dancer, an actor and an aeroplanepilot. A bally treat.Howl's Moving Castle, by Diana Wynne Jones(HarperCollins, 5·99)The Witch of Waste puts Sophie under a spell. To break it, she must brave the castle of theWizard Howl. Imaginative and terribly funny.
Just So Stories, by Rudyard Kipling(Walker, 9·99)Learn how the leopard got his spots and the camel his hump. And remember "The Elephant'sChild" - whose "satiable suriosity" turns his "bulgy nose" into a trunk?The Borrowers, by Mary Norton(Puffin, 6·99)First published in 1953, this remains a deserved favourite. The Clock family live beneath afloorboard, making do with what "human beans" drop, until one day one of them allows herself tobe seen Struwwelpeter, by Heinrich Hoffman(Dover, 6·99)These pungent 1840 morality tales are not to be taken literally: in one, a boy gets his thumbschopped off.The Magic Faraway Tree, by Enid Blyton(Egmont, 5·99)Jo, Bessie and Fanny climb to the top of a magical tree, above which are endlessly circulatingworlds: the Land of Birthdays, or, more unluckily, of Dame Slap.Danny, the Champion of the World, by Roald Dahl(Puffin, 5·99)Danny and his hard-up father bond over poaching pheasants from nasty Mr Hazell's land - beforemoral dues are paid.George's Marvellous Medicine, by Roald Dahl(Puffin, 4·99)To cure his grumpy grandmother, George Kranky concocts a medicine from shaving foam, sheepdip, engine oil and brown paint. Granny grows huge. The ending is dark even for Dahl.Underwater Adventure, by Willard Price(Red Fox, 4·99)Willard Price invented zoologist brothers Hal and Roger Hunt to get children interested in nature.Underwater Adventure takes them into shark-infested seas. Some sharks are human.Tintin in Tibet, by Hergé(Mammoth, 6·99)After Tintin reads of a plane crash in the Himalayas, he dreams his friend Chang has survived.Uniquely, there are no villains - just a tender yeti and acres of snow.The Complete Brothers Grimm Fairy Tales(Chronicle, 11·99)Sourced from medieval German folktales by Jakob and Wilhelm Grimm in the 19th century, thesesanguinary stories deal with abduction, cannibalism and worse.
Erik the Viking, by Terry Jones, illustrated by Michael Foreman(Puffin, 5·99)Erik tells his wife that he must go to "the land where the sun goes at night"; off he travels on anatmospheric adventure, terrifically illustrated.When the Wind Blows, by Raymond Briggs(Penguin, 7·99)Jim and Hilda Bloggs's preparation for a nuclear attack remains enthralling. First comic, thenmoving.Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats, by TS Eliot(Faber & Faber, 4·99)This delightful collection of verse sees cat-loving Eliot capering about with his trousers rolled. Aperfect introduction to the pleasures of poetry for children.The Iron Man, by Ted Hughes(Faber & Faber, 4·99)Since it appeared in 1968, the late Poet Laureate's children's book has become a classic. Benigniron bloke falls from sky, battles space-bat-angel-dragon, saves world. Bliss.The Owl and the Pussycat, by Edward Lear(Corgi, 5·99)Edward Lear's bizarre story of inter-species elopement and gastronomic adventure still charmsand diverts. Runcible.The Wind in the Willows, by Kenneth Grahame(Egmont, 5·99)"Believe me, my young friend, there is nothing - absolutely nothing - half so much worth doing assimply messing about in boats." But reading about Mole, Ratty, Toad and Badger runs it a closesecond.Peter Pan, by JM Barrie(Puffin, 4·99)JM Barrie's Neverland adventures were first performed as a play, and later turned into a novel.Clap your hands if you believe.Mr Majeika, by Humphrey Carpenter(Puffin, 4·99)Mr Majeika, with his tuft of hair, is ever ready to cast spells on unruly pupils - most notablyHamish Bigmore, whose rudeness gets him changed into a frog. Charming and funny in equalmeasure.The Water Babies, by Charles Kinglsey(Wordswoth, 1·99)Tom the sweep drowns after being chased from a rich household and falls into a sub-aquaticpurgatory. But once he proves his worth he is allowed wonderful adventures.
