Catherine Fisher story online

Becoming Merlin on the BBC Wales site, part of a series of retelling of myths for children. I wish they had let her read it, but still, better than nowt. Took a while to load for me, but it's interactive and on the last pages you can make the sun do things....

That's cute. You can make most pages wriggle either the foreground or background left & right, and you can make the king's eyes follow the cursor. It's fun to make him cross-eyed.

Thanks; I enjoyed that. It's not often the BBC let me watch something online either.

There are interactive games here, based on Merlin stories.

Ahhhhhh... oh, yes. :^)

Thanks! I'd only seen that the first one in Welsh. :-P

I should listen to them in Welsh. Doesn't matter that I wouldn't understand, I could enjoy the music. :^)

I did listen to part of that one. It's interesting matching up the sounds to the text. :-)
