Sinopsis

In "Tom, Dick and Harry," Talbot Baines Reed crafts a quintessential boys' adventure novel that captures the spirit of late Victorian England. Through vivid prose and endearing characterizations, Reed presents a tale rich in themes of camaraderie, exploration, and moral development, as three boys navigate the challenges of friendship and the trials of adolescence. The novel's episodic structure and lively, descriptive passages invite readers into a world of playful escapades, while also reflecting the era's social values and educational reforms, particularly concerning the importance of physical activity and teamwork among boys. Reed, an influential figure in children's literature, drew upon his own experiences as a teacher and a passionate advocate for youth education. His dedication to uplifting boys through literature can be traced to his background in education and his belief in the formative power of storytelling. This dual perspective enriches the narrative, offering not just entertainment but also moral instruction, aiming to guide young readers toward virtuous lives. "Tom, Dick and Harry" is a must-read for both young audiences and adults interested in the evolution of children's literature. Reed's engaging narrative style and vivid illustrations of boyhood adventures hold enduring appeal, making this book a timeless classic that will resonate with readers seeking adventure and lessons in friendship.

The first book in a fantastical series that combines a quest for magic and friendship with Welsh mythology and a pinch of science, all within a contemporary setting. The lake has been calling to twelve-year-old Vivi Conway. On the day she and her Mams will move from Wales to London, she sneaks out to investigate what is calling her there. Instead of a quiet swim, she finds Excalibur (much smaller than she expected), a ferocious monster (much scarier in real life than in her mythology books), a new friend (which she doesn't want at all) called Dara and a ghostly dog named Gelert (who can talk.) Gelert insists that Vivi is part of a magical group of children known as enaids who share the souls of witches from legend and must protect the world from being taken over by the evil King Arawn of the Otherworld. Oh, and now she can magically control water. With a little extra help from spiky Avery and sweet-hearted Chia, Vivi must come to terms with her magical destiny and be brave enough to embrace true friendship.
