Well I think it was 79 before I read the hobbit ... (I am afraid I don't remember the 60's cos I really wasn't there...

) And although I was a precocious reader and soon having read everything in my class library had to go up to the "top class" (lol - the seven year olds!) for higher level "Wide range readers", at home it was probably Winnie the Pooh... and Issy Noho and Teddy Robinson - and other arctophile literature
