In my primary school it was Mr Davies who told us the story of Prince Llewellyn and Gelert (and I cried a lot which he didn't like! - but it's a very sad story) and read 'The Wind in the Willows' to us - what a wonderful chapter 'The Piper at the Gates of Dawn' is... and in secondary school the wonderful Miss Flint who suggested we read 'Lord of the Rings'. I've now read it several times - and saw the wonderful films... but also it was the poetry.
