An English castle, secret passages, sliding doors, Army secrets, spies, and a fierce storm, mixed well with a group of lively children spending a summer in a hilly country village, results in a surprise holiday packed with adventure. Jack's interest in birds leads him to the deserted castle, but strange signals and curious doings hold him there. Mystery Island readers will be glad to meet again the kindly detective, Bill Smugs, and the personality parrot, Kiki. Miss Blyton is a favorite adventure story writer in England and boys and girls here will enjoy her fast moving tales.
In the land of Ingary, it is considered a great misfortune to be born the eldest of three. It means that you are destined to fail, no matter what you do, and Sophie Hatter, a meek little hat shop owner's daughter, firmly believes in this. She herself is the oldest of three in the town of Market Chipping, and her younger sisters are considered far more pretty and talented than she. But Sophie's miserable little world is turned upside down when she is transformed into an old hag by a woman known as the Witch of the Waste, and she leaves the hat shop to seek her fortune in the world.
