For Philip, Dinah, Lucy-Ann, Jack and Kiki the parrot, the summer holidays in Cornwall are everything they'd hoped for. Until they begin to realise that something very sinister is taking place on the mysterious Isle of Gloom - where a dangerous adventure awaits them in the abandoned copper mines and secret tunnels beneath the sea.
A beautiful hardback edition of The Island of Adventure, the first book in Enid Blyton's classic Adventure series, first published by Macmillan in 1914. Gloriously illustrated with the original line drawings by Stuart Tresilian and with a foreword by Cressida Cowell, this is a truly special gift to treasure.
Enid Blyton, who died in 1968, is one of the most popular and prolific children's authors of all time. She wrote over seven hundred books, which have been translated into many languages. She also found time to write numerous songs, poems and plays, and ran magazines and clubs. The Island of Adventure was her first book for Macmillan, and the beginning of the bestselling eight book series.
