This is the first time I've seen 'Mystery Island' (the American version of The Island of Adventure) by Enid Blyton as a paperback.
Mind you, its not cheap!

Re: Mystery Island paperback
Thanks Rob - I've only ever come across it in the cave.

Re: Mystery Island paperback
Ah yes - thanks Pete. For some reason, I don't think I've seen the paperback version before, even though I'd seen 'Mystery Island' in The Cave. Obviously I wasn't looking properly!
