This is the first of a series of fourteen books about four children in the Lockett family and their holiday adventures. It was written in the early 1930s, and reflects an England between two world wars. Originally published by Jonathan Cape, this is the undated Children's Book Club edition. The Children's Book Club, located at 121 Charing Cross Road, London, was a prominent book subscription service run by the famous Foyles bookshop. Illustrations and endpapers are by Harold Jones. Previous owner's signature to the fly leaf but otherwise this is an unmarked copy, still tightly bound. Slightly grubby boards commensurate with age, and there is no dust jacket. More photographs available on request. Please note that if ordering from abroad, any customs charge will be the responsibility of the buyer. All proceeds of sale go to LOROS, a Hospice Charity serving Leicestershire and Rutland.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
