Revision to page

I have removed the character listing:

Will Stanton: Fourth member of the group, met early on during their Cornish break.

from this page, as he doesn't appear in this, the first book in the series. He is introduced to the reader in the second book in the sequence, The Dark is Rising, and meets the Drews (on their return to Cornwall) in the third book, Greenwitch.

Fair use rationale for Image:SusanCooper OverSeaUnderStone.jpg

Image:SusanCooper OverSeaUnderStone.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Great-uncle is not correct.

Within the first couple of pages, the book explicitly says that 'great-uncle Merry' isn't really a relative. Referring to the Drew children's mother and Merriman, just after he kisses her on the cheek the book says, quoting, "he was not her real uncle, only a friend of her father"
