There was this King Arthur Book that I used to read all the time in Year 6 but I can't think who wrote the particular version I read. There's also another book I'm desperately trying to remember, It was about this boy who had a mother called Pumpkin and basically one night he runs off to this city and joins up with a group of children who are led by an older kid who called himself the King of...something I think. It's really annoying me.

Can anyone remember The Family From One End Street? I loved that book.
Also all of Beatrix Potter's books and AA Milne.
The Wind in the Willows
The Eagle of the Ninth
Enid Blyton's Famous Five.
