Frequently Asked Questions
Does reading a lot of books foster critical thinking?
I see many children who read a lot are really intelligent. Therefore, be smart, you need to be able to think critically.
I assume it depends on the types of books you read, if you read just fluff all the time, probably not.

Are all those kids who say they never read the books and never study but still get strait A's lying?

Andy Mulligan's school rules
With the saw "life is dangerous", pupils given tots of rum to keep warm, cigarettes smoked and firearms brandished by the underaged, it's at least 10 times deadlier than Blyton and tons more fun. The first ticket, Ribblestrop , saw a motley crew of pupils, headed by the feisty Millie and Colombian soldier's son Sanchez, discover a lethal laboratory beneath their school. It was hailed as "disgracefully rickety high-octane fun of the highest order: an outrageous delight" by Philip Ardagh. The sec, Return to Ribblestrop , is just as wickedly funny and has made it onto the longlist for the Guardian children's fiction trophy .
In the sequel, the children have adopted a zoo within 60 pages before tumbling headlong into circus training and football, ghosts, exorcisms and an continuous battle with fiendish policeman Inspector Cuthbertson and a priest who isn't all that he seems.
Mulligan, who's said in the former that Ribblestrop is "not Hogwarts – any elf would be stamped on and barbecued very quickly" , thinks the rap-bang-wallop violence of his boarding school is, perhaps, "some kind of response to the lack of truth in Enid Blyton".
