Markymark | 2 comments Trying to remember the name of a choose your own adventure type book i had as a kid in the 80s which i got through th 'Bookworm Club' in the UK.

It was an A5 size with a hard card cover (unfortunately i can't remember the cover art but im sure id recognise it immediately ) book in which you chose how the story went - I'm almost certain it wasnt an official Choose Your Own Adventure.

It had awesome fantasy art throughout and did not need dice or any other paraphernalia.

One of the main things i remember was a part where you are to cross a lake by using lily pads with multiple options, possibly while avoiding a nasty frog. It had all the usual fantasy stuff like dragons, trolls etc.

It was a relatively thin book but had pretty varied branches.

Id love to be able to track this down and i thank in advance anyone who might have a clue yo what it was called.x.

Scott Could it have been one of TSR's Endless Quest books?

They were paperbacks but maybe you had a library bind?

Markymark | 2 comments Wow, thanks for the quick response! Unfortunately it's not one if those...

The book i remember seems to be for a younger reader, i was in junior school so around 10. I can't be sure but i don't think it was part of a set.

I reckon it could have been a ladybird book or the like with younger style illustrations.

Thanks again...I'm sure I'll get it soon. :)
