Reviews

Somewhere between Pippi Longstocking and Tracy Beaker, Betsey Biggalow, who stars in these short, pacey stories, is an imaginative and enquiring girl who is sometimes mischievous but always endearing

—— Guardian

Written in the most beautiful English, this is one of the books which I would be proud to give to anyone

—— BBC

Perhaps the best of all ... Just what does happen is told with all the wealth of practical detail and satisfying sense of reality which make Mr Ransome so unfailingly successful.

—— PUNCH

The most exciting of the whole Swallows and Amazons series.

—— NEW STATESMAN

The seventh of the Arthur Ransome books, and I really think it is the best.

—— SUNDAY TIMES
