Growing up as a young teenager, his cricketing fantasies used to amuse me

I still have four of those books home...how much youngsters would read them now?

I loved those books ... I used to be a big fan when I was in form 1
the first one I read Jennings was trying to grow watercress on wet blotting paper for salad

Jennings and his bredrin, Derbyshire ...think I read them all. Along with Biggles and Billy Bunter.

Great, great reading back in the day ...but to answer your question, kid .....it's a rare yute nowadays who would give them even a glance. Xbox and Nintendo carrying the swing now ....books get a blow.
