Julian, Dick, Anne, George and Timmy the dog find excitement and adventure wherever they go in Enid Blyton's most popular series.

When George is kept awake at night by a toothache, she notices a light on the supposedly empty Kirrin Island. While George is at the dentist the others decide to investigate and strange things start happening...

Can the Famous Five solve this mystery?

In addition to the Famous Five novels, Enid Blyton wrote a clutch of short stories based on the characters. These were published in magazines and collected in the Famous Five Short Story Collection (Hodder). For the first time, the complete and original text of Five Have a Puzzling Time (1956) appears in an individual volume, illustrated with brand new colour art by Jamie Littler.

Original Blyton stories are paired with brand new colour illustrations by Jamie Littler in a new and exciting format.
