An Ambleside year is a year of the Ambleside Online programme, not a reader's age. Year 0 is its first year, and a book used over several years shows the span. The ages beside it are that band offered two grades up and none down, which is how we offer a band; they are a placement, not a reading measure.
Young Robin arrives by ferry at the banks of a sleepy town harbouring an expectation of some sort of employ with a more prosperous kinsman of his, Major Molineux. But upon inquiring the whereabouts of his kin, Robin is stupefied to be met with an assortment of strong rebukes, incomprehensible mirth and satirical comments. What has Major Molineux done to warrant such a strong reaction? Most importantly where is Major Molineux?
