In our family (age 12&9) and must read is John Masefield’s A Box of Delights - a bit dated but wonderful language and there’s a DVD from the BBC if reading’s not your thing. We started reading it from about age 8 as it does get scary in places but nothing serious - we’re just a family that get scared by Disney!

A wonderful (wordless) book with 96 stunning illustrations by Peter Collington is "A Small Miracle". The wooden figures in a Christmas crèche come to life to save a poor old woman in a highly original and moving parable.
