[Rob Houghton]

It would be a lovely book that I would buy...IF...

What a shame that it doesn't have anything to offer the serious collector who likes illustrations of human-beings.

[Courtenay]

What are all those black dots around their heads for? Are the Five somehow attracting a huge swarm of blow-flies??

I bought it before Christmas. It's a lovely bound book actually, and despite it not being illustrated by Soper, I do like it.
