Synopsis
This book is rewritten from Book 6 of THE FAMOUS FIVE - Enid Blyton’s most popular adventure series. The “Famous Five” are Georgina (preferred name George) and her dog, Timmy, with her three cousins, Julian, Dick and Anne.
The Five hope to spend some fun time on Kirrin Island. But George’s father, Uncle Quentin, has borrowed their beloved island. He is doing some very secret experiments and he wants to be all alone on the island. He won’t let anyone visit - not even George and the rest of the Famous Five. But is Uncle Quentin really alone on the island?
Enid Blyton (1897 - 1968) is one of the world’s best-loved children’s authors. Her books have been translated into over 90 languages and are still enjoyed by children and adults all over the world.
