Adventure Island: The Mystery of the Dinosaur Discovery: Adventure Island

My 8-year-old son is an avid reader of adventure stories, with Enid Blyton as his very favourite author. He really enjoyed this book and says it is as great as those by Blyton - high praise indeed ... he is delighted to have discovered this series and is now asking for the first six books! JUNO I think this book has it all: adventure, mystery and humour. I think boys and girls will enjoy it. I give it a ten! -- Annabella (11 years old) ANORAK
