Book 7: We Didn’t Mean to Go to Sea
The Swallows are staying on the Suffolk coast while they wait for their father to return home from China. But
although the harbour is bursting with bobbing yachts, barges and steamers, this year there's no chance of any
sailing for the landlocked Swallows. That is until they rescue young Jim Brading and his boat the
Goblin
from a
sticky situation and to their delight are recruited as crew members. Their mother agrees they can go, on one
condition – they absolutely must not sail out past Beach End Buoy and into the open sea…

Book 8: Secret Water
When the Walker family's holiday plans are ruined by their father having to work, the whole summer seems lost at
sea. But a dull holiday for the children is too miserable to bear, so their parents hatch a plan. The Swallows are to
be marooned on an island with only a blank map and a little sailing dinghy. Their task? To explore and chart the
area, avoid the endless mud and survive. And what do they discover? Well, they might not be as alone as they
first thought…

When Dick and Dorothea arrive in the Norfolk Broads all set for a blissful summer on the river, they find their

boys are under suspicion by everyone on the river. And in the meantime, the real culprits are still at large!
There's no choice but to form a crime-busting team: The Big Six. As the evidence stacks against the boys, can
they solve the mystery and trap the real criminals?

the
Wild Cat
and it's been plain sailing for a hundred ports. But when Gibber, the ship's monkey, accidentally
sinks their faithful boat, things take a serious turn for the worse! Separated, captured, miles from home, the
Swallows and Amazons are about to meet their fate and the pirate who holds it: the legendary Missee Lee...

Book 11: The Picts and the Martyrs (or Not Welcome At All)
The Ds can't wait to go and stay with Nancy and Peggy in the Lake District during the summer holidays. But
when the Amazons' dreadful Great Aunt invites herself to stay too, the summer is threatened with dullness!
Staying indoors and reading poetry is not what the Amazons had in mind! To save the Ds from the same fate,
they organize for them to stay in the Dogs' Home, a tumble-down hut in the woods. As long as no one discovers
they're there, they can sail all summer long...

Book 12: Great Northern?
Flat on his front, binoculars to his eyes, alone at dusk, Dick makes a remarkable discovery: two rare birds, never
before seen in the British Isles! Captain Flint and his crew decide to consult an expert to confirm the discovery.
But when the man they ask turns out to have his collector's eye on the birds' eggs, not to mention skins, an
enjoyable voyage around the Outer Hebrides becomes a desperate race to save the birds, and themselves…
