of Key Stage 1 children.
The pictures are dated, and children do notice that there are very few colours and that the people are "wearing funny clothes".
The backdrop to Harry's life is different to today, but when children comment on the strange train or the coal chute, this promotes discussion about life before they were born (and in the greater scheme of things not So long ago).
There is so much to get out of the illustrations alone- for example, look out for the parasol on the roller and the people driving through the building site.
However, what they notice most is Harry.

Harry's beginning to worry that fun as his adventure was, maybe he should have thought a little harder first, and he slinks away sadly to ponder his next move. Suddenly an idea occurs to him and he rushes to the garden and begins to dig feverishly. When he's found what he's looking for he bounds into the house and upstairs. The family find him sitting in the bath, holding in his mouth the scrubbing brush he buried earlier. After a good, soapy scrubbing he is revealed: "It's Harry!
