Stig of the Dump - Rated
A great book which i read back when I was at school. The film was recently on TV and my 9 year old daughter was engrossed in it! Decided to buy her the book and she has hardly put it down since! Book is about a young boy who finds a cave man living in a cave at the bottom of a dump. He starts a friendship with him and tries to keep him safe! great read and well recomended!
memories - Rated

now i have bought it for my own children, and i know they will get as much pleasure as i did from this great story.
my favorite kids book ever - Rated
This book was my favorite book when i was younger. it captured my imagination like no other book i read when i was in school and i must have read it hundreds of times. My mum forced me to buy it at a book fare when i was in school much to my dismay (i probably wanted a fluffy doggy puppy book or something like that) but i am so glad she did.
I was so excited when i found it in a box of some of my old things recently and i have just finished reading it again and it was just as great now as it ever was 15 years after i first got it. The book has stayed in my mind all this time, everytime i see an empty jam jar or a tin can open at both ends i think of it.
The perfect book for both boys and girls, i cant wait untill my son is old enough to read it too. i would recomend it to anyone, even adults. If you read it when you were young then go ahead and buy it and read it again and recapture all that excitment that you felt when you read it as a child.
Wonderful - Rated
My favourite childhood book - I read it countless times. This book seems to sum up what the school Summer holidays were all about when I was youngster, playing outside and having adventures (even though mine didn't include rubbish dumps or cavemen!).
Perhaps Clive King's masterpiece might seem a little dated to the modern child but I believe the relationship between Barney & Stig that lies at the heart of the book will still captivate new readers. The simple pen and ink illustrations are little gems that complement the written text beautifully.
If you want to encourage an under 10 year old to read for pleasure then I would recommend introducing him or her to Stig of the Dump.
Magical - Rated
I loved this story as a child. Even then it was dated, but classic stories like this easily weather that. Barney's growing relationship with the caveboy Stig is so magical that you become totally immersed in their world. I am looking forward to reading this to my own children. It has all the ingredients of a classic adventure story, a lonely boy finds a special friend who is unique and magical and together they create a world of their own.
