* '''BB: Which three books should every child read?'''
AM: You're not going to like this answer, but I honestly don't believe you should be prescriptive about what children read. They should read whatever they fancy, exploring the great world of books until they find the kind of thing that engages them. It's why libraries are so important to children – they're a playground made of words. Having said that any child that reads ''The BFG'', [[Tom's Midnight Garden]], and [[''The Lord of the Rings]] '' won't go far wrong.
* '''BB: Actually, we do like that answer. Very much. Although we - even as adults - prefer [[The Hobbit]] to [[Lord of the Rings]]. What are you reading at the moment?'''
