101.Asterix and the Big Fight (Asterix (Orion Hardcover)) by: René Goscinny May 27, 2004
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £9.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £6.49 You Save: £3.50 (35%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £2.37
I've positive memories of the Asterix series - which I raced through as a wee kid - and after having flicked through the modern printing of this adventure, having bought it for someone else, I can honestly say this is an ideal way to get reluctant kids started on reading if my own experience is anything to go by. You might also want to consider buying it for learners of English. There's abundant colour on each page, and the visual storyline will in most cases keep kids positively distracted. The print quality of the modern edition is better than what I remember it to be, which at times could leave a powdery feel across your fingers. I'm really thinking of the hardback compendiums here, but there are no problems with the current print run.

103.The Tragical Comedy or Comical Tragedy of Mr Punch by: Neil Gaiman October 16, 2006

I do love Neil Gaiman's work, but Mr. Punch is not one of his better efforts, in my opinion. It was loosely put together, and failed to offer up the blurbed promises of "A nightmarish world of violence and betrayal." Though the artwork is good, and Mr. Gaiman's prose is good, the book simply was unable to create even a low-level dread of the creepy Punch & Judy puppets. It is simply a bland story of a young boy's memories of his Grandfather's failing arcade off the main attractions of a seaside business area. The boy is sent to stay with his Grandparent's while his mother is due to deliver his baby sister, and he meets and old puppeteer who is not very mysterious and witnesses his grandfather have an argument with ...

106.The Shooting Star (The Adventures of Tintin) by: Herge June 20, 2003

In 1942 the continent of Europe was totally embroiled in World War II, which may well explain why Herge offers up the most fanciful of all of the adventures of Tintin. In fact, nothing else comes as close to "The Shooting Star," which begins with the world about to end because of a collision with a giant come and ends with Tintin dealing with giant mushrooms on an island in the middle of the ocean. In between there is a race to find a meteorite that contains a new element of great scientific importance (another case of Herge's remarkable premonitions based on his meticulous research no doubt). Tintin is aided and abetted in this adventure by Captain Haddock, who we first met in the previous tale, "The Crab with the Golden Claws." But I must ... Read More:

107.The Doctor Who Storybook 2007 (Dr Who) by: Russell T Davies, Tom MacRae, Gareth Roberts, Nicholas Briggs, Clayton Hickman July 01, 2006
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £7.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £5.99 You Save: £2.00 (25%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £0.01
With the glut of Doctor Who related merchandise that fills the shelves these days there are inevitably high and low points. Never mind the lows though, this is a definite high! Apart from the dodgy sketch of Rose on the front cover this is a high quality offering from Panini books and deserves the positive reviews given here. The only possible criticism is the artwork but the contents and layout are top drawer. Story-wise, highlights are Mark Gatiss' 'Cuckoo Spit', the tale of a lonely boy whose life is shaken-up by The Doctor and Rose and 'Gravestone House', a creepy mystery which shows that things aren't always what they seem; reminiscent of that master of teenage fiction, Robert Westall. Never preachy but always leaving the reader with something to ponder, ... Read More:

108.One Piece: Romance Dawn: 1 (One Piece) by: Eiichiro Oda October 06, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £5.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £5.69 You Save: £0.30 ( 5%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £1.75
This manga is extremely similar to dragonball, it has the same kind of plot set up. A boy looking for a treasure, and on the way meeting tons of likeable characters. The art is somewhat unique but suits the manga well. I think Naruto resembles alot of characteristics of this manga, 2 teenage boys wanting to be the best and not letting anything get in their way. To sum it up, Brilliant. The plot is entirely original but the way its written is inspired by dragon ball and inspired Naruto. One piece is destined to be KING OF THE MANGAS! the only reason i gave it 4 star is because amazon dont stock the earlier volumes and they are so hard to find in stores, amazon GET THEM IN

109.Ultimate X-Men Volume 2 - Weapon X: Return to Weapon X v. 2 (Ultimate X-Men (Paperback)) by: Mark Millar April 01, 2002

Ok after reading the first UXM i was kinda let down by this one i know theyre all seperate storys but this volume really is kinda boring, it introduces nightcrawler, juggernaught and rogue and does dulge into worlverines past but any xmen fan already knows it so its not really that much of an impact when u read it. art work is fantastic though and once again the story is funny yet serious. if your new to ultimate x men and want to see what its like buy the tommorrow people otherwise if your a collector then i dont know why your reading this and havnt bought it yet.... go on.... buy buy!

If like me you're desperate to get your children to read more then The adventures of Tin-Tin are a good way to do this. My son's 11 and is a big fan. There's a huge base of these great books and I would thoroughly recommend them. They are totally innocuous, so there's no worries about inappropriate language or situations, not that I'm being unrealistic as 5 mins on an xbox360 seems to give children more exposure to societies less pleasant side than anyone really needs, but strangely enough children seem to enjoy a simplistic fantasy story of one boy and his dog.
