Tyrion tapped the leather cover of the book " That's why I read so much, Jon Snow" '
A very interesting article about fantasy fiction which is worth a little peep for both old and young-that doesn't mean I'm recommending Game of Thrones for the primary school aged children! Interesting discussion raising value of a sometimes spurned genre for adults although I don't ever think it has been that case for children.
