Hike is the right answer as stated as this was the title I cropped. I warned it was a tricky one..
As many will already know, this isn't the first time it has happened:

If there are two answers, then either should be accepted as being correct. If somebody had said 'Hike' you could have easily said it wasn't right and held out for the other one. Certainly not fair-play in my book. :roll:

As Five on a Hike Together and Five Fall Into Adventure have the same cover picture, it does make sense to accept either one as correct.

Goodness knows how the same cover picture ended up being used for two books , especially when it wasn't at all suitable for one of them! And how on earth did it happen twice?! :?

I'll guess that the latest cover to be posted is for Five Go Down to the Sea.

We had that one when I was little — it's Five Get into Trouble! :D

It's not Five Go Down to the Sea, is it? (That doesn't seem "really tough", but I figure someone's got to try it, if only for process of elimination...)

Yes, that would be a logical choice - but it's a different book.
We can still have copious amusement eliminating all the ones it's not.. :D

An extremely enjoyable suggestion - but sadly not the one Nick.. :cry:

Not that one sorry John. :cry:

Am I allowed to give a clue - or would that stop it being lighthearted and fun?
