That is one of my favourite illustrations too, John. The Valley of Adventure was one of my earliest Blyton books and it really captured me as a lifelong fan of Enid Blyton.
When butterflies hover and dragonflies gleam,
When rushes grow high by the pond and the stream,
And foxgloves stand in the woodland and dream
It's Summer!

(The Enid Blyton Poetry Book)
