The Railway Children
The classic Edwardian story by E. Nesbit is now a classic children's film by Lionel Jeffries. After their father is imprisoned as a spy, three children go to live in a Yorkshire country cottage with a railway line at the bottom of the garden. The many new friends they meet, and the exciting and dangerous adventures they have on the tracks, help to prove their father's innocence.

Swallows And Amazons
Arthur Ransome's immortal story is the bright, breezy and colourful tale of six children on holiday in the Lake District during the glorious summer of 1929. As they happily mess around in boats, their friendly rivalry is filled with imaginary dangers and piracy. Based on one of the best-loved books of all time, their exciting exploits are a handbook to adventure for children for all ages.
