<P> Ransome's pictures were done in pen and ink with no colour, although colours have been added by some publishers in later editions . Typically, figures in the pictures are shown from the back, though there are some which show the faces of a few of the characters . Taqui Altounyan, the oldest of the children to whom the first edition of Swallows and Amazons was dedicated, recalls that "He shirked drawing faces and got over that difficulty with back views of shaggy heads of hair or hats". </P> <P> The sixth book in the series, Pigeon Post, won the inaugural Carnegie Medal from the Library Association in June 1937, recognising the best 1936 children's book by a British subject . It was reviewed in The New York Times the month after J.B. Lippincott & Co. of Philadelphia published the first U.S. edition . Ellen Lewis Buell welcomed the latest work in the six - year - old series that had firmly established "a special niche in juvenile literature". She noted the children's "vivid collective imagination which turned play into serious business" (hunting a gold mine on the moors) and observed, "It is the portrayal of this spirit which makes play a matter of desperate yet enjoyable earnestness which gives their distinctive stamp to Mr. Ransome's books...Because he understands the whole - heartedness of youth he can invest a momentary experiment, such as young Roger's Indian scout work, with real suspense ." </P> <Ol> <Li> Swallows and Amazons (published 1930) </Li> <Li> Swallowdale (1931) </Li> <Li> Peter Duck (1932) </Li> <Li> Winter Holiday (1933) </Li> <Li> Coot Club (1934) </Li> <Li> Pigeon Post (1936) </Li> <Li> We Didn't Mean to Go to Sea (1937) </Li> <Li> Secret Water (1939) </Li> <Li> The Big Six (1940) </Li> <Li> Missee Lee (1941) </Li> <Li> The Picts And The Martyrs: or Not Welcome At All (1943) </Li> <Li> Great Northern?
