I love this book. It was publsihed two years before I was born, and so had a slightly old-fashioned air when I read it at ten or so. I remember the characters using pen-and-ink with nibs while I used a biro... but there were nibs still lying about in drawers at home! The activities; writing, photography, local exploring, school etc were SO familiar to me. Must re-read it!
