Guess the book from Eileen & Betty's illustrations!

[Fiona1986]

I don't know why I put so much thought into my answers when they are almost always wrong I should just pick a random book, I'd have a better chance...

But OK if Anita is close then how about Five Are Together Again?

[pete9012S]

Yes, you see logic does work!

Soper now:

Okay, I'll go out on a limb here—but partly because most of this illustration can be found on the main Enid Blyton Society site!—but let me guess:

"Five on Kirrin Island Again" — with Julian discovering "weeds growing round the edges of the stone".

Love Eileen Soper's artwork, BTW.

[pete9012S]

That's the one!

Wonderful Time?

[pete9012S]

That is a really great guess - close but no banana!

[Lucky Star]

Five fall into Adventure?

[pete9012S]

That's the one!

[Lucky Star]

Brilliant, I got one. On a side note the old Gyspy woman depicted in the picture has really been well captured by Maxey. She really does look aged and very mysterious. In this case the minimalist style of Maxey has worked very well as almost all of the attention is focused upon the woman.

That's the sort of talk that can get you a strong warning from the moderators here John!

Next:

Five on a Treasure Island?

[Eddie Muir]

I think it’s from Five Run Away Together.

[Daisy]

Of course Eddie! - and I had "Roamer" in my head too!

[pete9012S]

By Jove Eddie's got it again!
Will his skill help him with the next Maxey?
