Look out for Michael's other ghostly stories The Ghost of Grania O'Malley and The White Horse of Zennor. However, if you would like to refer to the text, in chapter 7, we discover the mischievous old ghost (Sir Walter) sets about restoring the family’s fortune, while all the time Bess has to try to keep the presence of a ghost in the house a secret. Sir Walter comes up with his own scheme to steal the orb from the Crown Jewels to help raise money for the farm.

Bess knows he has because her gran found some fish in the kitchen in the morning, and Bess gets blamed, which she finds very annoying. I have skimmed through this review, and left out quite a lot of important parts. But the book itself is amazing, and educates us about the important historical figure. I've learnt there is a lot more to Mr. Raleigh than him putting a cloak over a puddle for Queen Elizabeth.The family are staying with their auntie, Auntie Marie she's called, When they are taking the dog out for a walk, he nosedives into a bush, and discovers...the lost crown jewels!
Michael Morpurgo has thrilled and delighted huge numbers of young readers since becoming a children’s author in the early 1970s," Wood said. "Action for Children’s Arts is delighted to recognise Michael’s outstanding contribution by presenting him with the J M Barrie Award 2016. His work will undoubtedly, like Peter Pan, stand the test of time, making him a truly worthy recipient of this award." Michael's books have been translated into many languages including Chinese, Bulgarian and Hungarian, Hebrew and Japanese. He travels all over the UK and abroad talking to people of all ages at literary festivals, telling his stories and encouraging them to tell theirs. A son and grandson of actors, Michael has acting in his blood and enjoys collaborating and performing live adaptations of his books at festivals, concerts and theatres. For more information about the work of Farms for City Children, please visit www.farmsforcitychildren.orgThis was planned for a Year 4 class with a high percentage of SEND children in a mainstream setting working significantly below the expected standard for Year 4. However, the lesson has enough of a challenge to engage the higher attaining pupils and could easily be adapted for an older or younger year group. A hilarious tale of history come to life, from former children’s laureate and master storyteller, Michael Morpurgo.
