 Children plus dog explore the island in the cove where one of them lives and look for treasure. 

Pure nostalgia with the book which is my earliest memory of owning a book. Read in memory of my uncle who gave it to me and who died last week.

This is the first book I've ever read! It instilled my love of reading! Made me really wish my family owned a island!

I was instantly thrown back into childhood. This series was a favourite back then and not for nothing. So ofc i liked it quite a lot this time around, plus nostalgia points. Only critism ist the sexism and transphobia, but i guess this is just a product of its time. We love you George (he/him). <3
