Customer Reviews of Swallows and Amazons: The Big Six
Another charming video This sequel to "Coot Club" is equally nice. Unfortunately availability of the "Big Six" has been a problem (why I think there are so few reviews), which I hope will be relieved.
Both videos are faithful to the books, and if you like the books you'll like the video. Both are sort of "masterpiece theaterish" in terms of novelty (for today's kids) both due to period dress and being a bit slow by modern slam-bang kid-vid standards. Whether this a plus or minus depends on taste... for me it's a plus.
The Big Six video is reasonable intro. to Arthur Ransome
Its a video not a book and the book is better! This a BBC production and has to be shorter than the book and leave a lot out but it does cover the plot pretty accurately. The scenery is nice and the actors mostly meet my expectations. There is some sailing, and the detective work is done well. Its a better introduction than its sister video Coot Club but there is not a Swallow or Amazon in sight!
Personnally if you have younger children this is good but once they hit 10 or so I'd give them the books first.
